Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: While driving at most any speed and making a slight right hand turn, the power steering will hesitate then jerk to the right, requiring the driver to sometimes over compensate the steering to to left. at this time the problem hasn't been bad enough to cause an accident, but is getting worse. this has happened hundreds of times over the past year. i haven't fixed the problem since i can't afford the repair cost. *ak
