I've only driven my car 3 times since receiving the part but the 3rd time my steering wheel locked up for about 30-45 seconds. I called my mechanic and got it checked. The only thing he says could cause it is the bad part because everything was fine. I have informed the seller that they would like pictures as if the item was in the car. Let's see what they say next. Spend more money on mechanics. The part must be removed and replaced.
