NHTSA Complaint #10402260 — 2004 BMW Z4

I HAVE AN '04 BMW Z4 AND AM HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE STEERING. I'VE BEEN READING ONLINE THAT MANY OTHER Z4 OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEMS THAT I AM WHICH INCLUDE; DIFFICULTY KEEPING THE WHEEL STRAIGHT, HAVING TO USE A LOT OF FORCE TO MAKE STEERING ADJUSTMENTS, AND CONSTANT PULLING TO THE RIGHT/LEFT WHILE DRIVING. THESE PROBLEMS OCCUR EVERY TIME I DRIVE MY VEHICLE. I RECENTLY TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MECHANIC, WHO SAID THE PROBLEM WAS PRETTY BAD. I AM WAITING TO HEAR HIS EXACT DIAGNOSIS AND SHOULD HEAR FROM HIM ON MONDAY 5/23/11 AS I DROPPED IT OFF FRI 5/20/11. I HAVE NOT WRECKED THE VEHICLE DUE TO THESE PROBLEMS HOWEVER I HAVE HAD SOME CLOSE CALLS. FORTUNATELY I AM A VERY ATTENTIVE DRIVER OTHERWISE THERE MAY VERY WELL BEEN AN ACCIDENT. *TR
