Consumer Description

HAD SSC 9LC (ELECTRIC POWER STEERING LINK ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT) PERFORMED AND THE STEERING FEEL HAS BEEN ADVERSELY AFFECTED, WHERE THE ON-CENTER STEERING FEEL AT FREEWAY SPEEDS IS VAGUE. FURTHERMORE, WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL ON GRADUAL TURNS, I FEEL A NON-LINEAR RESISTANCE MOVING FROM THE ON-CENTER POSITION TO ONE SIDE OR THE OTHER. THE SENSATION MAKES THE STEERING FEEL DISCONNECTED WITH THE WHEELS, WHERE I'LL TURN THE STEERING WHEEL AN AMOUNT THAT I FEEL IS APPROPRIATE TO NEGOTIATE THE GRADUAL TURN, YET THE VEHICLE WILL CONTINUE TO TRACK ON ITS ORIGINAL COURSE. *TR
