The lock for the telescopic function of the steering column gets unlocked while driving. Many a times the steering collapses whilst driving. Its been happening very frequently since the time I have owned this car. Apparently I have to replace the whole steering column assembly, costing >$1200. 00. I have been proactively checking the lock every 10 - 20 mins of driving to avoid the collapse of the steering.
Other issue is when I use the turn signals and move the steering in the intended direction, I hear a ticking sound. There is no sound when I dont use the turn signals.
I also seem to get vibrations through the steering column with a certain rhythm.
