Had a problem with steering, noticed it before i purchased the car, the dealer said they would fix it. what they did was install rack and reset alignment. the car was fine after this for about a month and then started having the same problem again. the dealer is saying now it is a different problem, but i am still having the same kind of steering problem. and so they want me to pay for the repair, even though they haven\\'t fixed the original problem.
