Description of the problem	I was turning my steering wheel to leave a parking lot on friday february 6,2009 and heard a clicking noise in my steering wheel. Next thing i know the steering wheel can be jiggled from side to side because it is so loose. I then proceeded to drive home and it tightened up again after a few turns. It became loose once again after turning a few more times. I have never had a steering come loose and feel like it is going to come off the whole steering column. As of now, we have not had it repaired yet, we are taking the car in on monday february 9,2009 to gurley leep nissan in mishawaka indiana. We have attempted to capture this on a short video. Do you have an email address that we can send this video to? We are filing a complaint for a safety concern. We are curious if other people with this make and model have had any similar issues going back to 2005 and newer. This could be a huge safety concern which could lead to the steering wheel coming off the column or losing the ability to steer altogether. I have never owned a new vehicle that had this problem occur, this is not from normal driving or wear and tear on a vehicle. I am very careful with my vehicle and keep up on the maintenance.
