Consumer Description

THIS CAR HAS AN UNDRIVABLE ISSUE OF TRAMLINING. IT IS SO HARD TO STEAR WHEN THERE ARE GROOVES OR ROAD IMPERFECTIONS...UNLIKE ANY OTHER VEHICLE I HAVE EVER DRIVEN. AN INFINITI MECHANIC TOLD ME THE PROBLEM IS A DEFECT IN DESIGN OF THE STEERING RACK. I CAN CHANGE THE STRUTS/SHOCKS AND PUT NEW TIRES AND THAT WILL NOT HELP...I HAVE BEEN TOLD. PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM SO I CAN SAFELY DRIVE MY CAR. IT IS SO JITTERY TO STEAR, I WILL NOT LET MY WIFE DRIVE IT. UPDATE: I SPENT $450 AT THE INFINITI DEALER TO TRY AND FIX THE STEERING. RESET A SENSOR AND ALIGNMENT. NOTHING CHANGED. CONSTANT TRAMLINING. I AM TOLD THAT A REDESIGNED STEERING COLUMN WOULD FIX THE ISSUE. AGAIN, THIS IS DANGEROUS. THE CAR WILL NOT STAY STRAIGHT ON A SMOOTH STRAIGHT ROAD. VERY DANGEROUS IN CORNERING.
