 Description of the problemJust over a year ago i started hearing a sporadic sound when making a left hand turn. When i brought it to the attention of the dealer' service department during regular maintenance, they said they found no problem and unfortunately did not indicate the complaint on the service record. I don't believe they took my description seriously at the time. The sound disappeared for a while but reappeared consistently when cold weather arrived this fall. Three weeks ago the steering started to become very hard. It took a week to schedule an appointment, 4 days to receive a part and 5 more days to "fit" the repair in with an estimated cost of $500. They wanted us to wait an additional four days and at first implied there would be no option for a loaner car. Our car has 47000 miles on it and unfortunately we do not have extended warranty. When i presented the original noise, it would have been under warranty. I refuse to drive the car as i nearly had an accident when i tried to turn the wheel and had difficulty. We are still making payments and combined with nearly annual run flat tire replacement issues, this seems a unreasonable repair.
