Consumer Description

THE LEVER TO ADJUST THE TELESCOPING STEERING WHEEL ON MY 2008 TOYOTA AVALON DOES NOT STAY IN THE LOCKED POSITION. IT DISENGAGES (FALLS DOWN), RELEASING THE STEERING WHEEL AND ENABLES IT TO SLIDE IN AND OUT WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON SEVERAL INSTANCES IN THE TWO YEARS I HAVE HAD THE CAR. IT HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. I HAVE SEEN OTHER INTERNET SITES THAT OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT HAVE TRIED TO OBTAIN A REMEDY WITH NO LUCK. *TR
