“Steering system: when vehicle is first started or drive on cold day there steering system is extremely difficult to turn. Also when brake is applied steering wheel will stop at a half of a turn. Excessive effort is required to turn. 2. Brake rotors will sometimes vibrate when brake is applied. Also anti-lock will turn on and drasticaly increase stopping distance. 3. Transmission will sometimes not let me select first or second gear. Vehicle must be in low or third, then shifted back into first to get going.”
