| Description of the problem | April 20 got off of work went to my car and it wouldn't start. Thought it was the battery and had battery replaced. Vehicle still will not start. Looked on line and seems it is the steering lock system failure that is disabling my car. Called dealer and they said there is no recall on this part but yet every time i look something up online i see hundreds of complaints of people experiencing the same problem on the same year and model. |
