While traveling at a speed of 55 MPH or more, car sways left to right, steering is extremely loose and at time it is hard to control the vehicle from veering. Almost as if you are trying to control the car in a wind storm. I purchased this vehicle dec 31, 2003, in the first 45 days I had it to the dealer 3 times, it's now june 2004 and the vehicle has been in 8 times. I am getting absolutely nowhere. They keep telling me there is nothing wrong. But I know better,when I'm driving down the road and the car goes off on it's own. I am very fearful for my safety and the safety of my 22 month old child. Some days I can't even bring myself to put him in this car. So what it comes down to is I'm paying for a car I can't even drive because they don't want to do anything about it. Something has to be done about all this.
