: the consumer stated while at a stop sign, the steering wheel turned 360 degrees and the tires did not react. The vehicle was towed to the dealership, were it was determined this is the same problem as indicated in NHTSA recall # 03V196000, regarding the shaft sector. The vehicle identification number was not included in the recall. Updated 2/24/2006 - the consumer contacted the manufacturer about the problem. They explained that the failure was just a coincidence.
