Consumer Description

THERE IS A POPPING AND KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM FRONT END AND CAN BE HEARD AND FELT THROUGH STEERING. IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING IS GOING TO FALL APART. IM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE MY KIDS AROUND. FOUND MANY MANY POSTS WITH EXACT SAME PROBLEM FROM OWNERS OF 2008-2011 MODELS. IT SEEMS TO BE THE RACK AND PINION THAT IS DEFECTIVE! *TR
