Owner Complaints (1)
Your steering wheel unexpectedly locked and pulled to the right for 2-3 seconds while driving at 70 MPH on the highway after hitting a road surface irregularity, causing you to hit a wall. This issue has occurred multiple times since you bought the car new — triggered by road imperfections like potholes, speed bumps, or train tracks — but the dealer couldn't find a problem during inspection. The steering typically recovers on its own without any warning lights, though this highway incident was more severe than previous occurrences. This likely requires a comprehensive steering system diagnostic and possible replacement of steering components or software reprogramming.
