Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AND ABOUT THE MAKE A TURN BUT THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS VERY TIGHT AND FELT LIKE IT WAS PULLING IN THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION OF WHERE I WANTED TO TURN. MY SON WAS IN THE PASSENGERS SEAT AND TOGETHER WE WERE ABLE TO TURN IN ORDER TO PULL THE CAR OVER AND CALL THE MECHANIC. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED. *TR
