- Some describe the vehicle veering to one side on its own while driving, requiring an immediate steering correction, followed by a grinding noise and shaking from the rear of the car.
- A few owners note the steering wheel must be held at an angle to keep the car driving straight, even after a wheel alignment was performed.
- Rear suspension play has been reported alongside steering complaints, with side-to-side movement in the rear wheels that owners compare to a worn wheel bearing.
