Magnasteer issue: Extremely difficult steering at low speeds (below 15 mph) when vehicle is at operating temperature. Summer time conditions enhance this problem. When the steering fluid heats up, the steering becomes more difficult or impossible. The magnasteer rack has been replaced 1 time. This cured the problem temporarily (1000 miles). The dealership has worked feverishly and extremely well to correct the problem. Problem unresolved so far.
