What owners wrote
Vehicle steering would start pulling to the right and then the left. Noise coming from front end and very loud at times while turning. And sometimes would not turn it would lock up no control then you would get control of the steering. We had car into the dealer and they could not find a problem. Vehicle then started getting were it was hard to turn left ,it was like the power steering would quit and then start back .vehicle would turn right no problem. We had this checked again,it was under warranty.
Vehicle with 57000 miles, has the rack and pinion steering go out. At 48000 the air conditioner compressor went out. *nlm
