Is your car a 01 Colt too?
This is an old thread but since it never took off I'm ok with it.

With us, there was nothing wrong with the steering in the end. The mechanic gave it all a clean, we brought it back, and it passed.
More NCT scamming.

If is a sided fail (eg nearside or offside ) its more than likely an inner tie rod that needs replacing
