What would cause loose steering?
Have had it aligned recently and the steering wheel centered but it still leans to the left a little and it takes about four turns of the steering wheel to complete a turn. Prior to getting it aligned I would sometimes hear a rattle or shake under the front end when going over rough pavement but haven't heard it since the alignment though. Mechanic at the shop said the suspension 'looks good'...doesn't pull to the left or right, no shake in the steering wheel, drives ok other than the looseness in the steering.
This didn't start until I had new tires put on in June and an alignment done. Then had it re-aligned at a different shop recently when the steering started feeling loose.
