Things that are not expected or normal, immediately he says, well it was in an accident in august so who knows what happened. I said I do, i got tapped at a traffic light and a cop happened to be there in the next lane and the dent popped out on its own. He just said I will call you tomorrow but I dont think they will cover it.


I wouldn't get too upset yet. Just bc some know-nothing service rep guy says what he says doesn't mean there aren't intelligent men who will examine the rack and determine what failed.


I don't know how an owner could destroy his steering rack even if he TRIED. Maybe park right against the curb and turn the wheel into it full lock?
