Consumer Description

THE STEERING IN MY 2004 KIA SEDONA IS MALFUCTIONING. WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL IT NOW TAKES A GREAT AMOUNT OF EFFORT SOME OF THE TIME. IT COMES AND GOES. AS YOU TURN THE WHEEL IT GOES FROM EASY TO VERY DIFFICULT AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. AFTER A TURN YOU MUST TURN THE WHEEL BACK TO GO STRAIGHT OR IT WILL CONTINUE TO TURN. THESE 2 PROBLEMS ARE VERY DANGEROUS AS I COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT JUST BY MAKING A TURN. *TR
