Consumer Description

WHILE TURNING A CORNER MY STEERING WHEEL TURNED ONE DIRECTION WHILE MY TIRES STAYED STRAIGHT. ALSO WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 45 MILES AN HOUR. MY CAR WENT INTO THE OPPOSITE LANE ALMOST HEAD ON INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE WHEN MY WHEELS DECIDED TO TURN BACK WHEN I TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL ALMOST TO THE END OF STEERING RATIO. THIS CAR IS GOING TO END UP KILLING SOMEONE. THEN THERE WILL BE A MAJOR LAW SUIT. I REPLACED THE RACK & PINION. WORKED FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND NOW IT IS STARTING TO DO IT AGAIN. ALSO REPLACED THE TIE ROD ENDS. THE BOLTS BACK OUT OR BECOME LOOSE ON THE RACK & PINION. HAVE HAD TO TIGHTEN THEM ON MANY OCCASIONS.
