   A steering control module in my steering wheel failed which makes the lane keeping warning not operate correctly and the steering wheel not straight it's set at an angle to the right so when you're driving down the road you have to have it constantly turn to the right a little bit in order to go straight down the road in order to fix it you have to replace the entire steering wheel which is about 3,400 or so.

   I was driving on an interstate at about 70MPH and I hit a bump that sent my front end into a terrible wobble. I could not regain control and literally had to slow down by braking and pulling off the road. I am lucky I was in the right lane, or I would have been in trouble as it would not stop shaking until I got down to about 20MPH. I could not steer the vehicle until it was at the lower speed limit. It was the worst feeling I have ever experienced. I have been driving for…
