Consumer Description

MY WIFE STARTED THE CAR AND CLAIMED HOW HARD IT WAS TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. WE DROVE TO A LOCATION USING THE EXPRESSWAY AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUED. IT MADE TURNING UNDER MOTION VERY DIFFICULT. I TOOK THE WHEEL ON OUR RETURN AND CONFIRMED HOW AWKWARD IT WAS. SO WE DROVE TO OUR GARAGE. THEY CALLED US LATER AND SAID THE INPUT SHAFT MALFUNCTIONED. COST OF PART FROM TOYOTA $374.19 PLUS TAX AND LABOR. ONLY ONE LEFT IN STOCK. IS IT POSSIBLE THAT TOYOTA HAS A PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE RECOGNIZED AND RECALLED BEFORE THERE ARE SERIOUS ACCIDENTS?
