Weird Problem
Hi Guys,
Today as I was driving to work I had to make a hard stop, I had both of my hands on the steering wheel when I steped on the brakes. What happened next is I felt the steering wheel being pushed down, it literally moved maybe 1/4" towards the dashboard. I have been reading the forum for a long time and I have never seen this before. Could anybody chime in with any ideas, same experience. Car has approx. 175K 2001 clk.
Thanks in advance

This sounds like a ridiculously stupid answer but, was the telescoping function locked on the steering wheel? That's all I would think it would be. Hahahaha

That's what the dealer thought too, but the light on the dashboard for the steering wheel adjustment was not on and I haven't adjusted the steering wheel in ages. Maybe the lock is failing or it wasn't sitting right.
