Consumer Description

TRAVELING CA. 65 MPH ON I-435 IN KANSAS CITY, DIVERTED LANES FORCED ME TO DRIVE OVER SHOULDER RUMBLE BARS FOR ABOUT 50 YARDS. WHILE DRIVING ON THE RUMBLE BARS, THE VEHICLE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO OSCILLATE,JERKING LEFT AND RIGHT VIOLENTLY. I REDUCED SPEED AND EXITED THE LANE BUT THE STEERING KEPT SHAKING UNTIL I REDUCED SPEED TO AROUND 30 MPH. I STOPPED, VISUALLY INSPECTED THE TIRES AND THE FRONT SUSPENSION BUT FOUND NO VISIBLE DAMAGE. THE DIC INDICATED THE TIRE PSI FOR ALL TIRES WAS NORMAL. I RETURNED TO THE HIGHWAY AND RESUMED SPEEDS OF 65-70 MPH. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT REPEATED THIS ISSUE SINCE.
