Description of the problem | I recently took my 2012 toyota camry se in for the repair on my sway bars and i heard a rattling noise in/near my steering wheel/column. I then took it back to the dealer to have the lower steering shaft replace but the rattling noise was there and was getting worse. I took my car to another certified mechanic for a second opinion and he said that the power steering electrical component system would need to be replaced. And that i would need to take it to the dealer. I fear for my life and get overly anxious when i drive because once you get to at least 30 mph it sounds like the steering wheel is going to come. I called the dealership and they said for me to bring it back in but they have tried to diagnosis three times. This is my only means of transportation. I also had the front driver and passenger strut and shock, and mount assembly repaired. |
