Consumer Description

THE POWER STEERING WHEEL WOULD LOSE TENSION. WOULD JERK BEFORE THIS HAPPENS. SPEED IS NOT A FACTOR. NOT NOTICEABLE AT LOW SPEED, BUT AT HIGHER SPEEDS. BEEN TO DEALER 8 TIMES FOR PROBLEM. MECHANIC INFORMED OWNER IT'S 4-WHEEL FRONT STEERING SENSOR & REPAIRED IT. PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. *AK
