Consumer Description

MY TRUCK HAS STARTED HAVING TROUBLE WITH STEERING. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN AT JUST ABOUT ANY SPEED, BUT IS MOST NOTICEABLE ONCE I GET TO ~45 MPH. AS A TURN THE WHEEL TO THE RIGHT OR LEFT OF CENTER, I FEEL LIKE I HAVE NO POWER STEERING AND REALLY HAVE TO WRESTLE THE WHEEL. WHEN I COME BACK TO CENTER, IT FEELS LIKE IT'S WORKING AGAIN, AND I END UP CRANKING THE STEERING WHEEL TOO HARD BECAUSE OF HOW MUCH POWER I NEEDED TO USE TO TURN AWAY FROM CENTER.
