Consumer Description

THE STEERING GOES IN AND OUT. FEELS LIKE YOU HAVE VERY LITTLE CONTROL OF WHEEL WHILE DRIVING. WHEN ACCELERATING OR ENTERING HIGHER SPEEDS A DING GOES OFF. HAVE REPLACED STEERING COLUMN THROUGH DEALER. NEED TO REPLACE STEERING GEAR AND CONTROL MODULE. THIS SHOULD ALL BE COVERED CONSIDERING THESE PARTS PROBABLY ALL GO BAD HAVING A DEFECTIVE STEERING COLUMN TO BEGIN WITH. I DON'T FEEL SAFE AT ALL DRIVING MY CAR.
