The consumer stated the bolts in rack and pinion steering had to be tightened constantly. This has been happening for two years. Vehicle was taken to the dealership, and they stated it was wear and tear. When the bolts became loose the wheel locked. Consumer continued to tighten the bolts, but it only lasted for no more than a week.

While driving rack and pinion failed. This caused the consumer to lose power steering temporally. Dealership was notified, but did not resolve the problem.

The failure is 2 bushings attaching the rack to the steering gear have broken and fallen out, leaving metal bolts to hit metal which will eventually break the bolts, causing the car to be unsteerable. Dealer says the whole rack will have to be replaced because they can not get the bushings separate.

Dealer and Chrysler both contacted with complaint. No resolution offered. Repaired by my mechanic who also contacted dealer, who offered no resolution. Same faiure recurred at 100,000 miles; repaired again by my mechanic who was surprised Chrysler would not help. No safety defect (s) listed in summary.
