Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“While driving at speeds around 48 to 51 MPH, you can feel the steering wheel start shaking sometimes if you take your foot off the gas petal it will stop but more than not it will go into a violent shake to where one can hardly hang onto the steering wheel. You have to try and get safely to shoulder and stop. Then you can drive away but when speeding up to merge back into traffic it does it again. When you just cant take it anymore you exit the freeway just to drive the city streets to where you get the small like shaking in the steering wheel. …”
