Consumer Description
SINCE DEC 2017 THE CAR PRESENTED STEERING PROBLEMS AT SLOW SPEEDS, LOSS OF POWER AND HARD TO TURN. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT INFORMED ME THAT THERE WERE NO ISSUES. I DID FIND IN THE GLOVE COMPARTMENT A RECEIPT FROM A PREVIOUS OWNER IN WHICH THEY REPLACED THE POWER STEERING COMPONENTS IN LATE 2016. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE WITH THE CAR BASED ON THE MANY REPORTED INSTANCES ON THIS WEBSITE.
