Consumer Description

THIS SITUATION HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WITH THIS CAR WHEN IT RAINS AND THE GROUND IS WET. MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKS WHEN DRIVING MY CAR IN THE RAINY WEATHER. IT APPEARS THAT WHEN SOMETHING UNDERNEATH THE CAR GETS WET THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS. I'VE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. THE BELT WAS REPLACED AND THE PROBLEM PERSIST. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CAR, ESPECIALLY, WHEN IT RAINS. I'M AFRAID THE STEERING WHEEL WILL START LOCKING WHEN DRIVING IN DRY WEATHER TOO! *TR
