Consumer Description

VEHICLE HAS DEVELOPED NOTICEABLE PLAY/SHIMMY IN STEERING. WHEN VEHICLE WAS NEW PLAY WAS NOT THERE. IT WAS MENTIONED TO DEALER. THEY CHECKED VEHICLE OVER BUT COULD NOT FIND ANY PROBLEMS. HOWEVER, WHEN VEHICLE IS DRIVEN OVER SURFACES LIKE RAIN GROOVES, OR ANY SURFACE LESS THAN SMOOTH, VEHICLE WANDERS/SHAKES BAD. I TEST DROVE A COUPLE OF SIMILAR VEHICLES AT DIFFERENT DEALERS, NEITHER VEHICLE HAD THE 'PLAY' IN THE STEERING. THE PROBLEM STARTED AT 7500-8000 MILES. *AK
