Description of the problem	I noticed as soon as the temperature dropped below 45 degrees that the steering became stiff/difficult when turning. I will give a couple of examples of this issue. On one occasion, i was pulling out of my driveway and was attempting to turn left onto my street. The steering wheel did not want to turn and i had to muscle through the turn. On another occasion, i was turning on a expressway ramp at the position of the steering wheel felt as if there was a knot that i had to roll onto either side to control the vehicle. The issue with my vehicle happens when it's below 45 degrees and the vehicle is cold. The vehicle is in motion and the issue is more prevalent on the street and less prevalent (but noticeable) on the highway. The problem only occurs when turning. Last winter i asked the dealership to look at the steering and they reported everything was fine. This winter (2019) i brought the vehicle in for service. The technician reported he found the issue online and corrected the issue. Unfortunately, the issue is not resolved and the vehicle is still dangerous to drive.
