“Steering wheel clicks and vibrates during turns & lane changes. This issue is highly dangerous & has probably caused wrecks. I believe that the issue is in the plastic parts used. The suspension & struts are in need of replacement car is 5 years old, bought new off show room floor 2/14.2013. Car has 80000 miles and is on the second set of low profile tires. I follow the maintenance guide in the manual.”
NHTSA complaint #11140114, filed 2018-10, 80,000 miles“The vehicle dangerously fishtails when hitting a bump, from the size of a small pothole to larger cracks in the road. Sometimes the fishtail is so abrupt it feels as though the car is going into the other lane, though it's not that dramatic, it does move your vehicle travel to one side or the other, changing from your original position in the lane. The rear suspension needs to be fixed in some way so that the vehicle travel in the rear is not so abrupt. I feel as though this could definitely cause you to lose control and wreck the vehicle.”
