| I have a 2004 cadillac sls that i purchased new in 2004.... the steering column had to be replaced on it approx. a year or so ago but approx. a month ago, we had a heavy rain and i was attempting a right turn into my neighborhood and the steering got real tight and instead of turning right into the right hand lane, i had to go into the left lane where oncoming cars are but, luckily, there wasn't a car coming in that lane. the steering got very stiff. i feel this is very dangerous and is definitely a safety hazard. i feel when it rains, it is a risk as far as safety is concerned. i gave $51,000 for the car new. | |||
