The first week I owned this new H-3 my steering went out and the steering wheel was clearly tilted. I had to drive with the steering wheel very crooked to go down the road straight. I have taken the vehicle in 4 times regarding this since they attempt to fix it but then a clunk is heard and it goes out of alignment again. They replaced some sort of part in the steering column but this did not correct the problem since it happened again. Now a factory rep. Has decided it could be the power steering and they are going to replace the entire power steering. I am extremely worried that this a safety issue and an accident is inevitable. I would like to report this since I feel that this should be looked into.
