Tiguan

  • Automatic transmission
  • 125,000 miles

I drove the car to pick up my daughter from tutoring and on my way there the wheel just got stiff. I had to force the wheel on someone's driveway, open the hood and restart the engine. The car start perfectly fine and it has never given me any issues with the steering. No vibrating, not noise nothing!! I haven't had anything wrong with it since I bought it. All of a sudden I find myself unable to turn the wheel. I was terrified because if i was on the highway i would've been writing another story or not.

I literally live right off the highway and for this to fail in the middle of me driving is dangerous!! Just glad my daughter wasn't in the car with me.
