Consumer Description

I am experiencing what is described as STICKY STEERING. This has been a consistent problem over the last several months. The ONLY time it sticks is when minute inputs to maintain straight are necessary. There is initial resistance to any input of the steering wheel (from straight ahead center) at the time of correction, and then that resistance breaks, resulting in over correction. Left or Right inputs are identical. This only occurs while attempting to maintain straight. It is not evident while making turns, nor do I feel ANY resistance, or breaking while turning the steering wheel when the car is stationary.
