| Component | STEERING |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Loose steering with too much play in either direction. Very dangerous at higher speeds and causes wandering all over the road. Also, steering wheel locks after turning the wheel all the way to the left and back center. I was driving, made a u-turn and tried to bring the wheel back center, but the wheel locked and almost caused me to get into a collision. I am now not driving the car because it is not safe. I have been to the dealership 6 times. No one will help. Thousands of others have these issues yet nothing is being done. I made two videos of the loose steering and wheel locking.
