NY's used car lemon law seems to cover serious problems with steering, and the annual safety inspection should too. But it passed.

If you have the same issue I had, a ballbearing that fell into the steering shaft housing, youīll have a hard time trying to get the steering to lock up when you when to replicate the problem.Itīs also not visible.
I found out by pure chance, thinking it was the steering lock that was misbehaving.
When I was on my back pulling the steering lock out, one small metal ball fell out, which peaked my interest. After looking at the hole where the lock engages I saw a trace inside the steering shaft housing, so decided to remove it and investigate, then I found another ballbearing, that got lodged intermittently between the housing and the tab on the steering shaft that īlocksī with the steering lock, if that makes any sense.
