Consumer Description

STEERING BECAME SOMEWHAT UNRESPONSIVE WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. IT WAS AS IT THE STEERING WHEEL WAS STICKING. REDUCING SPEED DID NOT SEEM TO HELP, TEMP OUTSIDE WAS 71 DEGREES AND SUNNY. CHECKING WEB FORUMS, THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THIS CAR. BOUGHT THIS USED APPROX 4 WEEKS AGO, CONCERNED THAT IF STEERING CONTINUES TO FUNCTION THIS WAY, COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AS YOU TRY TO OVER COMPENSATE FOR STICKING ISSUE. *TR
