problem #1

S550

  • 15,000 miles
While making right-hand turn the steering wheel locked in a turned position and would not return to straight - locked episode lasted for 2-4 seconds. This happened 2X and I have left the car with a dealer and will not drive it again until all components in the steering are replaced. The dealer has been unable to reproduce the problem and has not made all necessary repairs.
