Component | STEERING |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | When accelerating from a stop and especially when turning, say at a stop sign, one looses control of steering. The car is also difficult to steer when going into passing gear. I fear that losing control is a major safety problem. My toyota dealership will not do anything about this problem. This happens repeatedly, even though i drive conservatively and has since i bought the car in december 2014. |
