Consumer Description

The component that failed is the left and right PAWS steering actuators. My car has 66,000 miles. At 25,000 miles, these parts were replaced by the dealer. Now at 66,000 miles, the parts are again failing. The car is unsafe to drive because the failure of these parts cause the rear wheels to "fishtail." It has happened to me 3 times this month and then I brought the car into the dealer. Although it didn't cause an accident, it certainly is easy to see how this loss of steering control would cause an accident. The dealer has confirmed the parts need replacing. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms prior to the failure.
