Consumer Description

STEERING IS DANGEROUSLY DEFECTIVE WITH CAR MOVING LEFT AND RIGHT RAPIDLY CREATING SCARY AND UNCOMFORTABLY DRIVING EXPERIENCING. FEELS LIKE INTERMITTENT GRABBING RESISTANCE ON THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN TURNING AT NORMAL HIGHWAY SPEEDS, ALMOST LIKE THE BRAKES ARE BEING APPLIED INTERMITTENTLY IN THE TURN. I HAVE HAD THE TIRES REBALANCED AND INSPECTED TWICE FOR DEFECTIVE OR SEPARATION OF TREADS AND NOTHING CHANGED. ALSO HAD A BMW SPECIALIST CHECK THE SUSPENSION AND FRONT END AND HE SAID ALL WAS GOOD THERE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR OFF THE ROAD DO TO SEVERITY OF THE PROBLEM. *TR
