Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: The problem started shortly after i brought the van. the steering column would "freeze" & not turn while making corners sometimes. this happened 4-6 times before the steering finally "brokeloose" and allowed me to steer (it has been for the most part been steering ok since this happened). but, when this happened ("brookloose" in the steering column) the air bag indicator light has been on ever since,(the air bag has ne ver deployed & there is no passanger airbag) & the cruise control will not work sometimes now. i feel this was/is a problem & should be looked at! i would like the mgfr.(dodge) to issue free inspection certificates & then offer to fix this if it a mgfr.'s defect. only then would i feel completely safe! *ak
