| Description of the problem | The steering binds during turns. I have noticed that the problem gets worse over time to a point that it seems dangerous to drive. When you turn the wheel, the wheel catches and turns the van real quickly in an uncontrolled manner. My mechanic has stated he needs to replace the steering rack. |
