Consumer Description

WHEN TURNING THE STEERING WHEEL I HEAR THIS NOISE LIKE THERE IS SOMETHING LOOSE IN THE STEERING PLUS I WAS TOLD THAT MY TENSION ROD NEEDS TO BE REPLACE AT A COST OF $1,500.00 MY CAR IS ONLY 4 TEARS OLD THERE IS NO WAY MY TENSION ROD SHOULD NEED TO BE REPLACE, I HAVE TALKED TO A LOT OF PEOPLE AND WAS TOLD THAT IT SOUNDS LIKE A DEFECT IN THE STEERING AND THE TENSION ROD. *TR
