Component | STEERING |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | When vehicle is at any speed, the steering just off of center is a really quick jerk. Driving straight is no problem at all, but as soon as any correction is made right or left at any speed, the car quickly jerks. On icy roads, it is very difficult to control, and extremely tiring even on dry straight roads. The car is very quiet to drive and gets great mileage, but is a little scary at times. I feel there is a design error that needs to be remedied. This will kill people... |
