Consumer Description

THE POWER STEERING IS MAKING A SPORADIC WHINING NOISE ONLY IN THE FIRST FEW MILES OF DRIVING WHEN THE VEHICLE IS COLD. TRYING TO WORK WITH LOCAL DEALER TO REPLACE THE PUMP, HOWEVER, SINCE IT DOESN'T HAPPEN ALL THE TIME THEY CAN'T "FIX IT IF THEY DON'T HEAR IT" I DIDN'T CONSIDER THIS A SAFETY CONCERN UNTIL RECENTLY. IT'S HAPPENING SO OFTEN NOW THAT I FEAR THE POWER STEERING WILL FAIL. *LA
