Consumer Description

VEHICLE WHILE DRIVE FINE FOR MANY MILES USUALLY AFTER DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY BUT WHEN I NEED TO MAKE A TURN IT BECOMES DIFFICULT FOR THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE AND WILL SUDDENLY JERK FORWARD OR POP. MY CAR WAS RECENTLY SERVICED DUE TO THE DRIVE SHAFT CRACKING IN AN ABNORMAL WAY ACCORDING TO MECHANICS WHICH COSTED $4200 I EXPECTED THE ISSUE TO BE SOLVED AFTER THE REPAIR BUT IT SEEMS TO HAVE GOTTEN WORSE THERE WAS A HUMMING SOUND NOW WHILE TURNING I'M AFRAID THE PROBLEM MAY BE MANUFACTURER RELATED SINCE IT'S HAPPENING AGAIN AFTER THE REPAIR
