Consumer Description

RACK AND PINION STEERING WENT COMPLETELY OUT ON VEHICLE CAUSING CAR TO CRASH INTO GUARDRAIL OF A BRIDGE. CAR WAS IN MOTION ABOUT TO CROSS BAY BRIDGE WHEN THIS HAPPENED, SAFETY OF DRIVER AND OTHER VEHICLES WAS COMPROMISED. CAR WARS TRYING TO TURN RIGHT HEADING TOWARD THE BRIDGE WHEN RACK AND PINION FAILED CAR WAS STOPPED BY HITTING GUARDRAIL ABOUT 45 MILES AN HOUR. STARTER HAD TO BE REPLACED THE VERY NEXT MONTH ALSO PROBLEMS WITH TRANSMISSION. ALL OF THIS HAS BEEN REPAIRED BY OWNER. I DON'T FEEL THIS SHOULD HAPPEN AS VEHICLE DOES NOT HAVE EXCESS MILEAGE ON IT.
