I have had numerous problems with this vehicle but I am only concerned about the steering safety concern. I have been trying to have it fixed through a Chrysler dealer but they have run out of ideas. It seems that in the slightest wind or passing truck the vehicle gets thrown in to anothe lane or shoulder. I am informing you because there may be other owners who have the same problem and could be in great danger.. thanks.

While operating vehicle at any speed it is difficult to maintain control. Dealership has examined vehicle, and replaced steering gear box and aligned the wheels. Also, consumer has replaced the tires. Problem has not been effectively remedied. Please provide any additional information / attachments.

Consumer makes a left turn at any given speed tires rub against shock brackets which causes a noise. Dealership has replaced spindle twice and steering gear box. Wants to put a 2mm shim on the back of tire. The 2mm shims were installed but the tire on left side was still rubbing.
