This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
While making a left turn the steering wheel sticks/locks instead of automatically returning to center, the problem seems to be more noticeable in warm weather, dealer has been unable to find the problem. Nlm
While turning the wheels froze, and I was unable to control the car. I had to jam on the breaks in order to keep myself from going off the road...very dangerous situation.
When accelerating from a stop and making a left turn, steering assembly will momentarily not return to center, but will stick at ~30degrees left of center. Effort is required to return steering to center, else it will remain in locked position. Only affects left turns and only when accelerating, otherwise undpredictable (not _every_ turn). Not related to engine or external temperature.
