I PURCHASED MY CAR IN APRIL 2016 WITH APPROX 22,000. ON THE SECOND DAY THERE WAS A LOUD NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE HOOD WHICH IT SOUNDED VERY CLOSE TOWARDS THE ENGINE, EXHAUST PART OF THE CAR. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY DIDN'T STATE WHAT THE ISSUE WAS THEY JUST TOLD ME THEY HAD FIXED IT. THE NOISE WENT AWAY. 3 MONTHS LATER I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKING. I WAS AT A BIG INTERSECTION WHEN I WAS TURNING LEFT MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED ON ME AND MY ENTIRE LIGHTS INCLUDING THE DASHBOARD WENT OUT. I COULDN'T MOVE MY CAR IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION AND LUCKILY THERE WASN'T CARS COMING TOWARDS ME. IT TOOK ABOUT 10-20 SECONDS TO COME BACK ON. WHEN IT DID COME BACK ON THERE WAS A LOT OF LIGHTS POPPING UP AND THEN THERE WAS A "STABILI TRAK" LIGHT ON. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE BECAUSE I KNEW I COULDN'T DRIVE IT ANYMORE. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP AND I TOOK IT IN THAT SAME DAY. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A WIRE THAT WAS LOOSE AND THEY HAD FIXED IT. WELL THEY DID NOT, 3 WEEKS LATER THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME AND THEY DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS GOING ON THEN. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AND NOW I AM BACK TO THE SAME THING EXCEPT SOMETHING NEW. NOT ONLY DOES MY LIGHT COME UP AND MY STEERING WHEEL STILL LOCKS ON ME BUT MY CAR BEGAN SHAKING LAST NIGHT AND WHEN I WOULD DRIVE IT IT WOULD MAKE THE SAME LOUD NOISE FROM THE BEGINNING TOWARDS THE FRONT OF THE CAR TOWARDS THE ENGINE, AND IT WOULD HESITATE ON GOING WHEN I WOULD MAKE A STOP. LIKE IF IT WAS ABOUT TO FULLY TURN OFF SO MY CAR GOT TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP LAST NIGHT. THE ISSUES WERE NOT FIXED AND THEY ARE ONLY GETTING WORSE.THESE ISSUES SHOULD'VE BEEN TAKEN CARE THE FIRST TIME I HAD GONE TO THE DEALERSHIP. NOW IT'S THE 4TH TIME I HAVE GONE TO A DEALERSHIP AND NOTHING IS BEING RESOLVED AND I PRETTY SURE NOW THERE IS A BIG ISSUE WITH MY ENGINE WITH SO LITTLE MILES!

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE CAR WANDERS IN THE LANE AND WHEN YOU TRY TO CORRECT THE STEERING IT SEEMS TO LAG OR STICK AND YOU NEED TO PUT EXTRA PRESSURE ON STEERING TO MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL. IT HAPPENS OVER AND OVER WHILE I WAS DRIVING. WITH THE LAG OR STICKING DURING THE CORRECTION THE CAR MOVES QUICKLY FOR A SECOND IN THE DIRECTION YOU ARE STEERING. SO WHILE DRIVING THE CAR WANDERS IN THE LANE AND EVERY CORRECTION YOU GET THIS LAG OF STICKING.
