Consumer Description

THE STEERING MAKES POPPING AND GRINDING NOISE WHEN TURNING LEFT OR RIGHT. ALSO AT TIMES THE STEERING IS HARD, THERE IS RESISTANCE . I HAVE TO USE TWO HANDS FORCE-ABLY TO TURN. AT FIST I THOUGHT THIS WAS AN ISOLATED INDECENT BUT REALIZE ITS GETTING WORSE OVER TIME. WAS ROUGHLY AROUND 65,000 MILES WHEN I FIRST NOTICED POPPING NOISE.THE VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 80,165 MILES ON IT. THE MAJORITY IS HIGHWAY MILES.
