Hi there
For a long time the engine light has been on on my car and it misses, intermittently. It has been turned off but within a week or two comes back on. I have had the Lambda sensor changed or so I have been told. Still the problem exists.
The other problem is with the steering In October I had 2 front tyres changed and a suspension arm. Now 3 months later the front passenger tyre is bald and the steering in my opinion is really dangerous. With very little touch it veers from side to side and when I park it locks rapidly to the left or right.
Please advise before I take it back to the same garage.

If you could post the code here for us we could give you more help. There are literally hundreds of thing that could turn on the check engine light. And as far as the front end is concerned, it sounds like you have a broken or severely worn part or parts. If your taking it to the shop I would suggest that you have it towed and not drive it.
