Consumer Description

POPPING NOISE IN STEERING COLUMN. RETURNED TO DEALER AS IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THEY CONCLUDED THAT IT WOULD BE A ONE TIME REPAIR TO RE-LUBE THE STEERING COLUMN.I WAS LED TO BELIEVE THEY HAD A SPECIAL LUBE THAT WOULD CURE THE PROBLEM. VEHICLE DID FINE FOR ABOUT 15000 MILES AND THE NOISE HAS RETURNED. HAVE HAD THE FRONT END ALIGNED SINCE THE ORIGINAL TIRES (FIRESTONE) WORE OUT PREMATURELY. CAN'T SEEM TO KEEP IT ALIGNED.
