Steering problem
2001 Chrysler Town and Country 6 cyl Front Wheel Drive Automatic 111000 miles
----------------------------------------------------------------
I have a 2001 Chrysler T&C...when ever the van sits for any time above over an hour the sterring doesn't want to turn...then with a clunk it will go...then for the first few miles of a trip it will cluck when ever you go back and forth on the steering wheel...ultimately it goes away for the trip...please don' tell me it's the steering rack...maybe an outer or inner tie-rod?..any help is taken gladly since this is my family car and carries my wife and kiddos... THANKS!

Hi there,

Sorry but i feel that this is in the rack, but would be checking out the coupling between the rack and the steering column as well, start here.
