Steering column would not lock and had a lot of play turning back and forth. When trying to restart on multiple occasions needed to turn wheel back and forth until the key would engage and start engine. No dtc codes for start issue. Replaced eis costing $1,100 so can only hope this is the only problem. Vehicle only has 67,600 miles.

While driving and changing gears from first to second, at or around 10 - 20 RPM my engine became uncontrollable and jerked sporadically. I could not control the vehicle until it changed into 3rd gear and then began to drive as normal. The car does this repeatedly now until I feel it has become unsafe to drive. The jerking is random so I don't know when to expect it and what to do when it happens. It has caused me to veer off the road occasionally.
