| Description of the problem | I have 2006 rav4 sport with 52k miles on it that is making a clunking noise when i turn at low speeds. There is technical service bulletin about this issue: st001-08 for steering. I can live with the noise but i want to know if this will be a safety issue. I do not want to lose steering control if i do not have this replaced since the warranty for the vehicle expired at 36k or 36 months. |
