Consumer Description

Steering Issue: Vehicle from purchase date had stiff steering. Figured this was just a new vehicle and it would get loose as it ages. As of one year later and 14K miles it has gotten worse. Especially at highway speeds the wheel gets "stuck" and breaking it free causes me to oversteer/overcompensate which gives the impression the vehicle is jerking left or right while in motion. Brought to the dealer who stated it's the steering column that will need to be replaced and the part has a six week backorder. Seat Issue: The passenger seat weight sensor alarms with zero weight on the seat.
