Owner report 11510849 · 2023-03-08 (March 8, 2023)
When I am driving at high speeds, 60+ MPH, the steering wheel starts to act up. The wheel feels as if it locks and needs to be jerked out of position to move. Sometimes when I am turning, the wheel feels as if it locks and again I need to jerk it out of position, which makes me swerve. It does not happen when I am driving on the street or at low speeds, it happens at higher speeds. The wheel sometimes feels locked for a few seconds and needs to be jerked to "unlock" it or whatever is happening.
