problem #1

Oct 102003

300M

  • miles
Unable to adjust vehicle toe. Dealer replaced steering wheel due to peeling and did a front end alignment and oil change. Vehicle came back with steering wheel cocked at a 45 degree angle when driving straight. Took vehicle back and it was returned to me with the wheel straight. I ran through two sets of tires when the tire dealer admitted the toe adjuster was frozen on one side and that he and possibly the mechanic before had set both wheels to a slightly toe'd out condition to allow the steering wheel to be straight. Otherwise the vehicle would have the steering wheel cocked at a slight angle. The vehicle is no longer under warranty. But the adjuster has been "stuck" of frozen since the first trip to the dealer.
