Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: During the cooler months of the year the steering on my 2001 chrysler town+country becomes exremely stiff to the point that i am unable to turn it and im 6'4" 280 lbs, my mechanic told me it could be a valve inside the rack+pinion isn't working properly he said the only thing to do is replace that steering component, i told a friend who has the same car what was happening and he told me he experiences the same thing. i was wondering if this is happening to other owners of this car and maybe could be a safety hazard. *nm
