About These NHTSA Complaints:
The NHTSA is the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints can be spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem. See the Back button — blue bar at the very top of the page — to explore more.
While driving my Countryman on the highway at about 50 mph, I my steering wheel suddenly and randomly jerked to the right. The jerk was sever enough to cause the car to swerve into the next lane cutting off a close by vehicle. I was able to maintain my line, and the issue occurred again causing my car to swerve an additional time. This is of serious concern for all drivers that this happens to and I am afraid that this will result in injury or death. During this time the elweather was dry and about 60F.the road was clear of debris, potholes and bumps. This is the first time in which this issue occurred for me in my +1 year of ownership.
