Consumer Description

STEERING WHEEL STIFFENED UP WHILE DRIVING MAKING IT IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN. SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RESTARTED. WHEEL WILL TURN BUT NOW THERE'S CLICKING NOISES IN THE STEERING COLUMN WHEN TURNING. SAME WEEK THE ANTI THEFT ALARM WENT OFF AND NO ONE WAS NEAR THE CAR. ALSO SAID I DIDN'T HAVE THE CORRECT KEY, WHICH I DID AS I WAS ABLE TO START THE CAR WITH IT. RADIO SOMETIMES TAKES LONGER THAN NORMAL TO TURN ON... SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF ELECTRICAL ISSUES.
