I NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL MALFUNCTION OR WHEN IT WILL CORRECT ITSELF. IT DOESN`T SEEM TO BE EFFECTED BY TEMPERATURE OR HUMIDITY. ROAD SURFACE OR ANY CERTAIN SPEED,WHEN IT BINDS UP IT REQUIRES BOTH HANDS ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO KEEP THE CAR UNDER CONTROL. IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE STRAIGHT DOWN A FREEWAY, WHEN IT WANDERS TO THE LEFT I MUST USE EXCESSIVE EFFORT TO TURN TO THE RIGHT AND IT OVERSTEERS AND I HAVE TO BRING IT BACK TO THE LEFT SO I JUST WIGGLE MY WAY DOWN THE ROAD. ON A THREE HOUR TRIP, BOTH ON FREEWAY AND TWO LANE  ROADS, MY SHOULDERS AND HANDS WERE SO TIRED I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND REST AND I WAS ONLY TWENTY FIVE MILES FROM RETURNING HOME.  SOMETIMES THE PROBLEM DOESN`T OCCUR BUT I ALWAYS MUST BE VIGILANT BECAUSE WHEN IT HAPPENS I HAD BETTER BE PREPARED, IT COULD BE SO EASY TO LOSE CONTROL OF THIS CAR. IT IS A REALLY NICE CAR IF NOT FOR THIS PROBLEM. MY WISH IS FOR BMW TO REMEDY THIS SITUATION VOLUNTARILY OR HAVE A NHTSA  RECALL ON ALL (AND THERE ARE A LOT OF Z4`S WITH THIS CONDITION),  THESE CARS BECAUSE THIS IS A GLARING SAFETY ISSUE, BESIDES BEING A REAL PAIN TO DRIVE.  I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING I CAN THINK OF, LIKE PULLING OFF THE ROAD AND SHUTTING OFF THE IGNITION AND RESTARTING BESIDES THREE INSPECTIONS AT A BMW DEALERSHIP, TWO OF WHICH I PAID THE GOING SERVICE RATE.  ALSO A FOUR WHEEL ALIGNMENT WHICH DIDN'T HELP AT ALL.  Z4 OWNERS NEED SOME HELP FROM SOMEWHERE!  *TR","products":[{"type":"Vehicle","productYear":"2005","productMake":"BMW","productModel":"Z4","manufacturer":"BMW of North America, LLC"}]}]}
