Bought this vehicle recently and upon driving it home noticed very sloopy steering, and a lot of play in the wheel ( i mean a lot) also a clunking type noise.. took it to be looked at and found out that frame horn that holds the steering gear box ? i belive thats what is was called is cracked/broken and the vehichle cant be driven as it is unsafe. it will completely break at anytime. it has not been repaired as we are trying to find out about recalls for this van. in hopes that a dealer will fix it . *jb |
