Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: Everyday driving on good roads and bad roads and while hitting bumps or any imperfection in the road steering wheel moves side to side. not the whole column just the steering wheel. one time, while holding steering wheel near bottom wheel jilted to right and caught my hand in opening of wheel to where i could not gain control right away. this steering wheel shake happens all the time, even on the highway, where vehicle does move to the left or right depending on which wheel hits the bump or hole in the road. dealer said this is normal in the steering. the steering is just very loose and sloppy, even at highway speed, where it is suppose to get tighter. vehicle was brought to dealer on 2/19/05 for the problem, and they found nothing wrong with the steering, only the brake system and replaced those parts. they said this will solve the problem. but my problem is with the steering , and a repair of braking system will not solve the steering problem, that will just solve the shaking problem when i stepping on the brake,s not while i'm driving along roads. there is 2,600 miles on the vehicle ,and i don't feel safe or comfortable. it always feels like the vehicle has a shock or stabilizer problem. i hope this can be looked into seriously before some one looses control and has a major accident with serious injury before this problem gets resolved. i am writing this so all 2005 armada owners will know there are not alone or nuts about this problem. it does exist regardless what the dealers say. thank you.*ak |
