If she knew the car was faulty and drove it knowingly and regardless, the insurance might not even pay.

If it has hydraulic steering, I would suspect fluid level. The thing you don't want is a problem with the auto box, but that can't be ruled out. On the basis that it steers and drives properly most of the time, I would look at steering first - hydraulics, ball joints sticking on the steering arms, etc.
If it's electric steering (like mine), it gets more complicated and might need a main dealer diagnostic.

FWIW I was always told never to use full lock except in emergency as it puts a huge strain on the system. Maybe the auto box couldn't handle it.
best of luck with your insurance claim.

OK, but whatever, I have been driving automatics for 46 years now, what you describe is not normal and potentially dangerous.

I agree that cars are a pain. I hate the bloody things, but this thread is useless without an OP.
If Andre won't tell us what it was about, now that he seems to have deleted it, will someone else please?

Auto car reversing under full lock stutters or jerks while moving.

Dave, if you haven't got anything positive to contribute why are you here?
