What owners wrote
Tl*the contact owns a 2005 dodge magnum. While driving approximately 30 MPH, the steering wheel loosened and the interior lighting became very dim. On occasion, the contact smelled a burning odor inside the passenger compartment. There were no warning indicators prior to the failures because the warning light indicators have never worked since the vehicle was purchased. The vehicle would start roughly from time to time.
