Consumer Description

THE RACK AND PINION STEERING HAS FAILED, ONLY TO ONE SIDE SO FAR--TO THE LEFT, MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER AND/OR TURN TO THE LEFT. AT 51,000 MILES, I BELIEVE THIS IS VERY PREMATURE FOR A FAILURE AND CAN BECOME A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD. CHRYSLER WILL NOT COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY. THEREFORE, IF OTHER OWNERS HAVE FILED COMPLAINTS AND/OR REQUESTED REPAIRS TO THIS ISSUE, I BELIEVE A RECALL IS JUSTIFIED TO PREVENT ACCIDENTS AND PREVENT VERY SERIOUS INJURY. *NM
