Consumer Description

STEERING WHEEL RUBS AND SHAKES WHEN TURNING AT LOW SPEEDS. LOUD RUBBING SOUND LIKE DRAGGING YOUR FINGER OVER A BALLOON. CAUSES DIFFICULTY STEERING AND IS DANGEROUS IN PARKING LOTS. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND DAILY OCCURRENCE WITH THE VEHICLE. I'VE OWNED TWO OTHER JEEP GRAND CHEROKEES - A 1999 MODEL AND A 2000 MODEL IN ADDITION TO THE 2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE I'M HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH. THEY ALL HAD THIS ISSUE. *NM
