Wheel problem #1

Steering wheel locks without warning. I've replaced power steering 2 years ago and vehicle continues to lock while driving making it difficult to control vehicle.

Wheel problem #2

Bought this car from a Nissan dealer as a used car in June 2012, it is the lt ve model. The problem while turning left with acceleration the steering wheel jerks right, at times it can be jerked out of the hands (depends on acceleration speed), also a clunking noise from left front wheel at times (with or without engine running). Sometimes while driving at 55 mph or better, taking a left handed curve, steering will become stiff and hard to turn. This has not caused any accidents yet but it could in the future resulting in serious injuries or death.
