“My father in laws 1994 Eagle Vision had complete steering failure only moments after my 16 year old son arrived home. Thankfully no one was hurt. I have just found out that this is a very common problem for Eagle and intrepid models. It happened only yesterday and I have not had time to repair the car but the problem is in the steering assembly. The tie rod ends have sheared off and completely disabled the steering. Had this happened a few minutes sooner my son would have been on one of the most congested roads in our area and it could have been a disaster.”
NHTSA complaint #10093770, filed 2004-10, 160,423 miles“Dt: consumer complained about rack and pinion steering problem. When turning corners has to be strong to turn, it's like there is no power steering. Contacted the manufacturer, and they say consumer will have to pay for repairs. There is a recall that includes the trans axle, but not the rack and pinion. This started happening on may 30, 2005.”
NHTSA complaint #10133748, filed 2005-08, 175,000 miles“The bolts which held the steering links to the rack and pinion sheared off while driving. This resulted in lost of steering power, which almost resulted in an accident. The manufacturer and dealership has been contacted.”
NHTSA complaint #10082055, filed 2004-07, 128,000 miles“I own a 1994 Eagle Vision and have been in to the dealers and other repair shops about my steering problem since 1997. Many told me that my problem was struts, but when they were replaced, the problem still existed. Finally, the last shop that I went into (firestone) told me that it was my rack & pinion system that is failing. They informed me that the whole rack is shifting from side to side and it has excessive play in it. While driving it feels like the whole vehicle is about to collapse to the ground. My steering and ride is horrible!!!”
NHTSA complaint #10056315, filed 2004-02“The car was being backed up and it made a very loud noise. Upon investigation the weld for the right engine cradle/control arm had came apart. This caused the rack and pinion to come apart and all bearings and bushings and grease to come out onto the ground. The car would not move and had to be towed on a flat bed to the dealer from which it was purchased. The dealer will repair it, but at a cost to him and not me since I had only purchased the car two weeks before. I do not know if the car will be correct when I get it back from being fixed.”
