 Consumer states after recall was performed on the suspension, consumer went to pick the vehicle up and proceeded to drive, consumer had a hard time controlling the steering wheel, consumer was informed that the power steering rack needed to be replaced which contained a lot play, consumer picked the vehicle up 2 days later and the steering wheel was shimmying, consumer was then informed that the tires should be checked, it was then discovered that the inside of the tires did not have any thread, both front tires were bald on the inside, and the tires were only 1 year old, later consumer was informed that this could have happened due to the power steering problems.*jb
