Consumer Description

I PURCHASED A 1999 SUBURBAN ON FEB. 28, 2004. WHEN WE TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE IT DID NOT SEEM TO HAVE ANY PROBLEMS. ON THE WAY HOME IT STARTED WANDERING ALL OVER THE ROAD AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD JERK. WE THOUGHT MAYBE IT NEEDED POWER STEERING FLUID OR PERHAPS TIRES. ON MARCH 11, 2004(TWO WEEKS LATER) I WAS WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND GLANCED DOWN AT MY CLOCK. WHEN I LOOKED BACK UP THE VEHICLE HAD VEERED INTO THE WRONG LANE. WHEN I TRIED TO GET BACK INTO MY LANE THE STEERING WHEEL JERKED TO THE RIGHT, WAY OVER CORRECTING ITSSELF. I TRIED TO STRAIGHTEN IT BACK OUT BUT IT OVERCORRECTED AGAIN AND CAUSED ME TO GO INTO THE DITCH AND ROLL.*AK
