There was a recall regarding rack and pinion steering. This has been repaired and replaced twice. The vehicle still has problems with the steering system. Contact took the vehicle to a service dealer, and they concluded that it was a power steering pump pulley. The contact has not had this repaired, the vehicle is at the dealership at this date.
