Consumer Description

STEERING ISSUES STILL CONTINUE. AFTER STEERING WAS FEELING LOOSE FOR SOME TIME IT FELT AS IF IT TIGHTENED UP ALL OF A SUDDEN. SLIGHT VIBRATION ONCE FELT IN STEERING WHEEL ON FREEWAY. STEERING WHEEL SLIGHTLY FLOPPED TO THE RIGHT TODAY WHILE DRIVING AND STEERING SEEMED TO DRIFT. STEERING FELT JERKY AND WOULD CAUSE VEHICLE TO ALMOST SWERVE. STEERING DOES NOT FEEL NORMAL. MANUFACTURE IS SUPPOSED TO ARRANGE FOR DISTRICT TECHNICIAN TO CHECK AT DEALERSHIP. STEERING JERKS USUALLY DURING HARD ACCELERATION AND DID NOT DO THIS WHEN VEHICLE WAS NEW UNTIL RECENTLY. I AM CONCERNED THAT THE STEERING MY FAIL OR NOT PERFORM AS IT SHOULD. I HAVE HAD A WITNESS DRIVE MY CAR FOR VERIFICATION. STEERING ATTITUDE INTERMITTENTLY CHANGES. I AM USED TO DRIVING FRONT WHEEL DRIVE CHRYSLER VEHICLES AND THE STEERING ATTITUDE SHOULD NOT CHANGE AS SUCH.*AK
