| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Rack and pinion assembly failed with only 48,000 miles on vehicle. steering was loose, clunking sound and sticking during turns. manufacturer won't cover because car is out of warranty. cost to me was $1200 for new rack and pinion. i don't feel this serious a problem should occur in a car with under 50,000 miles. if i hadn't had the problem checked out, it could have resulted in a seriour crash. manufacturer doesn't care about its reputation or about safety for its customers. *ak |
