| Component | STEERING |
| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | Cannot keep vehicle going in straight line without making constant minor adjustments. Sometimes, the steering does not respond immediately to the adjustments causing the vehicle to wander dangerously close to the center line or the side of the road. It will also over correct at times causing the driver to make a more drastic correction. Due to the lack of response (intermittent), my fear is that it will fail to respond at all. I took it to the selling dealer and, after a very short drive, they said "no problem found." we bought this car with 20,000 miles and it now has 60,000. This problem has persisted since we bought it. |
