What owners wrote
While driving on the expressway, the vehicle suddenly changed lanes and the steering became erratic. Upon examination, the idler arm had separated from the steering link arm. There was no warning and the vehicle had recently passed a safety inspection.
The consumer took the vehicle in for an oil change and the mechanic stated that the left tie rod needed to be replaced because there was too much play in the tie rod. *nlm
