problem #2

Jun 071999

Venture

  • miles
Steering wheel locked while making a left hand turn. After vehicle was towed and repaired, dealer informed me that the bearing on the steering column "disintegrated" causing the shaft to slip lower into the rack and pinion. This caused rack and pinion gears to go bad.
