STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR
THE DEALER ADVISED ME THAT THE PULLING TO THE RIGHT IS A CHARISTIC OF VEHICLE AND NO SOLUTIONS AT THIS TIME. THIS PULL IS A CONSTANT PULL AND REQUIRES THAT WE HOLD THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTLY TOWARDS THE LEFT TO COMPENSATE FOR THE RIGHT PULL. THIS IS A HAZARD AND CAN EASILY CAUSE OVER CORRECTION ON TURNS BECAUSE YOU ARE TRYING TO COMPENSATE FOR THE PULL. DT

EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL:ACCESSORY SCISSOR/SCREW/BOTTLE JACK/LIFT
JACK DOES NOT EXTEND TO HEIGHT NECESSARY TO RAISE FLAT TIRE OFF GROUND OR ALLOW REPLACEMENT SPARE TIRE TO BE INSTALLED. ON FIRST OCCASION, I HAD TO OBTAIN A 2X4 PIECE OF WOOD TO RAISE VEHICLE TO PROPER HEIGHT IN MY GARAGE, BUT WAS FEARFUL OF STABILITY OF AUTO. ON SECOND OCCASION AFTER CHURCH ON 8-25-02, I EXTENDED JACK TO FULL HEIGHT, COULD NOT REMOVE FLAT, WENT FOR SOMETHING TO RAISE IT HIGHER THEN JACK WOULD NOT RETRACT. HAD TO BORROW A SCISSOR JACK FROM A PASSING MOTORIST. THE JACK WOULD BE COMPLETELY USELESS IN ANY ADVERSE ROAD SURFACE. NEED TO REQUIRE A MORE SUBSTANTIAL JACK THAT WOULD BE SUITABLE FOR RAISING VEHICLE WHILE REMAINING STABLE TO AVOID INJURY. I PITY ANY MOM WHO GETS A FLAT WITH A CHILD ON BOARD AND NO CELL PHONE TO CALL FOR HELP!*AK
