Description of the problem	Arrived at toyota dealership to pick up my 2007 camry hybrid after servicing and work on floor mat and "electronic steering assembly" recalls. To this point i had no problem with the car whatsoever, ever. Dealer told me it was unable to begin work on the steering assembly recall because the part had not arrived from toyota yet, but the car was safe to drive until the part arrived. When i started the car, the steering wheel moved 100 degrees right, then left, on its own. Then i was unable to turn the wheel more than 1-2 inches in either direction. I repeatedly protested to the service reps on duty that there was a steering problem with the car. Each service rep denied any problem, and was unwilling even to walk 60 feet to check the car. First service rep told me the car was "correcting" as it was supposed to do in backing out of a parking space. Second service rep told me there was absolutely no problem, that the car was perfectly safe to drive, and that i "must not be used to driving with fully inflated tires." they urged me to drive the car off the lot and into the sierras (where they knew i was heading that day), but i refused. Ultimately i escalated my complaint to the dealership's customer relations mgr. Who consulted with a mechanic. And agreed there was a problem with the steering. The dealership kept the car several days until a new "rack"/electronic steering assembly arrived from toyota and was installed. They informed me the part replaced was the same part which was the subject of the "steering recall." the car now drives much as before, with the steering a bit stiffer. Although toyota has replaced the part, i am very unhappy with the initial reaction of service personnel, their insistence that there was no problem with the steering and that the car was completely safe to drive.

What is Recall?
A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
What is Failure?
Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
What is Defect?
Non-conformance of a car component with the specified requirements, or non-fulfillment of user expectations, including the safety aspects.
