Description of the problem	Prior to the incident, the steering column became very loose. I had to keep repositioning it. I thought i had tighten the safety lock piece that holds the steering column in place. The day of the incident, as i was getting in my vehicle, the steering column completely came down. It would not lock in place. As i was on my way the steering column moved up and down, and in and out. I could not control the steering vehicle. The next day i took the vehicle to a toyota dealer. I was told two pieces of the steering column broke off. I was given a quote from toyota in the amount of $600 for the part and $645 for labor. *js
