Description of the problem	I own a 2004 toyota camry with only 19,993 miles on it. The steering intermediate shaft was defective. Refer to technical service bulletin st001-06. I heard clanking and popping sounds coming from the steering shaft. The steering felt loose and sloppy. After reading the technical service bulletin i believed toyota discovered the faulty part in production and eventually changed to a new part. I was disappointed toyota charged me for labor to fix a part that was defective from the beginning. Toyota should have recalled the part and replaced it for free.*ak
