“This has happened several times, while driving between 20 and 40 MPH on dry pavement, slight curve, a beep in dash, shaking in right front wheel, as it pulled into oncoming lane to the left, I hit brakes clunk it took both hands to pull back into my lane. Power was lowered, felt like power steering went or lost a wheel. After out of curve everything fine. Would have hit someone head on if a car had been in the other lane. Called dealership, they stated it was normal. This has happened on and off about 10 or 12 times in the past 3 months. …”
