Steering Column problem #1

The contact owns a 2005 Chrysler Crossfire. The contact attempted to adjust the steering column but the steering column would not lock, causing the steering wheel to move back and forth while the contact was driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the contact was awaiting a diagnosis of the failure. The manufacturer was notified, but denied any assistance with repairs to the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure and current mileage was 46,720.

Steering problem #2

Went to back out of garage and the vehicle was difficult to steer. Continued to go and the car drove like it did not have power steering. I checked the fluid level and it is right to the line and looks very clean. It is hard to believe the steering quit after only having less than six thousand miles.
