Consumer Description

THE STEERING STICKS NOR MATTER WHAT SPEED I DRIVE. IT INTENSIVES WITH A TIGHTER STICKING OF THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60-65. TO DISLODGE THE STICKING THE WHEEL HAS TO BE TURNED SLIGHTLY TO THE RIGHT, WHICH GIVE ME AN INSECURE FEELING OF NOT HAVING CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE, BECAUSE THE CAR SHIFTS TO THE RIGHT SLIGHTLY. AT HEIGHT SPEEDS THIS IS A HORRIFYING FEELING. I'VE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP FOUR TIMES NOW. THEY'VE DONE THE DIAGNOSTIC TESTS THE KIA CORPORATION HAS SUGGESTED. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I'VE BEEN TOLD THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL, EVEN THOUGH THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER PERSONS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THEIR VEHICLES .
