| Description of the problem | There's an inch of steering play, both left and right. Vehicle swerves and is difficult to maintain a single lane. Constantly having to correct steering and feels that if i were to over correct in an emergency situation i could easily lose control. Feels like i'm driving in high winds. Took vehicle to dealership day after it was purchased and they adjusted to the toe and reprogrammed the steering box. Feels slightly better, but still having same issues maintaining a lane. Doesn't matter if i'm driving at a low or higher rate of speed. Is most noticeable while driving straight, and not as noticeable while turning, but still noticeable. |
