Consumer Description

STEERING ON CAR MAKES LOUD CLUNKING NOISES AND FREEZES/LOCKS AT LOW TO MEDIUM SPEEDS( PREVENTING ANY OPERATOR CONTROL FOR 1 TO 5 SECONDS). USUALLY SEEMS TO BE WHEN TURNING LEFT HOWEVER THAT IS NOT STEADFAST EITHER. EVEN TURNING WHEEL TO BACK CAR OUT OF DRIVEWAY WILL MAKE LARGE CLUNKING SOUND IN FRONT END. SEEMS TO BE USUALLY WITHIN FIRST FIVE TO 10 MINUTES OF CAR RUNNING HOWEVER THAT IS NOT STEADFAST. THIS CAR HAS NOT CRASHED YET BUT THE POTENTIAL HAS PRESENTED ITSELF MORE THAN ONCE. AT THIS POINT I REFUSE TO LET MY SMALL CHILDREN RIDE IN CAR. *JB
