| Description of the problem | Whenever i drive over any slight bump in the road my steering wheel shakes. I took the car to get repaired and was told it was the intermediate steering shaft. This was after a wheel alignment, wheel balance, and loose tie rod was repaired. My chief complaint was that the steering wheel shakes. I was told that this repair was under the 100,000 miles warranty. After doing some research i found since i'm a secondary owner, i'm no longer under the warranty. I don't believe this type of mechanical issue should occur on a vehicle that's only 5-6 years old. |
