Toyota Corolla Steering Safety Report | May 28, 2012
Reported on May 28, 2012
| THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I REPORT THIS ISSUE. I LOGGED 1,500MILES ROUNDTRIP FROM HOUSTON TO EL PASO. THIS IS ALSO THE 4TH LONGEST TRIP I HAVE TAKEN IN THIS CAR. THE PROBLEM IS THE STEERING IS DANGEROUS OVER 65+ MPH! THE FRONT END OF THE CAR FEELS LIKE IT FLOATS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I HAVE ZERO FEELING OF THE ROAD FROM MY HANDS TO THE WHEELS. THE CAR TRACKS AND NEVER STAYS TRUE ON THE ROAD. THIS IS CONSTANT AND NOT INTERMITTENT WHICH MEANS I AM FOCUSING MORE ON THE STEERING ISSUE THEN ON THE TRAFFIC. I AM EITHER OVERCOMPENSATING FOR ANY SLIGHT MOVEMENT OF THE STEERING WHEEL TO BARELY TOUCHING THE WHEEL TO KEEP THIS CAR REMOTELY DRIVING STRAIGHT IN THE CENTER OF THE LANE, AND THAT DOESN'T HELP! IT WORSENS AT SPEEDS OF 75+MPH. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET HURT! PLEASE RECALL THIS EPS SYSTEM NOW!!! *TR | |
