Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE OVERPASS/HIGHWAY, CAR JUMPS/SKIPS TO THE SIDE (OPPOSITE OF TURNING DIRECTION). STEERING SHAFT HAS BEEN REPLACED AND DIDN'T SOLVE THIS ISSUE. WE HAVE HAD FRONT END BASICALLY RE-DONE ALSO. LOSING POWER STEERING FLUID; POWER STEERING WHINES AND IS VERY STIFF. I AM CONVINCED THAT THIS VEHICLE SHOULD BE ON THE RECALL LIST!!! VERY DISAPPOINTED IN THE AMOUNT OF MONEY WE HAVE HAD TO SINK INTO THIS CAR. WE'VE BEEN DEALING WITH A CONTINUUM OF REPEATED PROBLEMS FOR 3 PLUS YEARS!
