Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I purchased a used 1996 chrysler lhs in august. when the weather turned cold, i noticed a "knocking" sound in the general vicinity of the right front tire upon turning the steering wheel soon after starting the car. after researching the problem online and being made aware of other similar symptoms that resulted in dangerous loss-of-steering situations, i took my car into my local chrysler service center. the car was diagnosed as having a "bad rack-and-pinion gear assembly." *la
