2 Steering problem

Failure Date: 07/02/2020

My vehicle began making a very defined rattling sound over small cracks and bumps in the road and the steering became extremely sensitive at the same time that problem occured. I took it in to get an alignment at belle tire, and it is up to spec. I took the vehicle to a BMW and nobody is able to figure out the issue. When driving on a highway or street, the car tends to pull in one direction. The car has not been in a crash, and it only started occuring after a a year of ownership. The car feels very unsafe and "sensitive" to steering. It is very challenging to stay in the center of the lane will sway left and right.

3 Steering problem

Failure Date: 03/10/2020

When turning left or right, the power to the wheels is not engaged. However, when the tire is straight, the power engages. This action prevents you from driving normally. To drive, you have to straighten out the wheel straight. Then as you increase velocity, you make your turn. Can be very unsafe as you are driving if this happens (breaks) on the road.
