Consumer Description

VEHICLE IS HARD TO STEER WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE HAD BEEN TO DEALER AND PROBLEM WAS REOCCURRING. *AK STEERING IS BECOMING DIFFICULT TO HANDLE AT HIGHER SPEEDS. CONSUMER HAS TO CONTINUALLY BE AWARE BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THE STEERING WILL FAIL. ALSO THE FRONT ROTORS NEEDED RESURFACING AT 25335 MILES. THE RIGHT FRONT WAS BADLY WARPED AND WAS CAUSING A VIBRATION WHILE IN MOTION. IT WAS GRABBING AT STOPS OR WHEN SLOWING DOWN. *JG
