Consumer Description

DT: CONTACT HEARD A LOUD CLANKING NOISE IN THE STEERING COLUMN FOR ABOUT A PERIOD OF 2 YEARS. HE HEARD THE NOISE WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL WHILE GOING OVER A BUMP. IT HAS GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORSE. DEALERSHIP TRIED TO PUT A LUBE KIT IN IT, AND IT DID NOT HELP IT. THE DEALER ORDERED A KNUCKLE ASSEMBLY AND REPLACED IT. ROUGHLY 10,000 MILES LATER IT STARTED TO MAKE THE NOISE AGAIN. ON 7-26 HE NOTICED THAT WHEN TURNING OFF THE CAR THE STEERING WHEEL WAS NOT LOCKING. IT OCCURRED AT ANY SPEED. *AK
