Something is wrong with it, likely worn out kingpin bearings and dust seals.
They do get blown around but without wind they drive straight (unless you have an uncorrected lift fitted)
If it suddenly breaks, go back to the last thing that you did before it broke and start looking there

Right under the black part at the very bottom of the dash there are 2 pozidrive screws.
Remove them, and then take the ashtray out, and remove the 2 self tappers upwards through the metal ashtray guide plate at the seat end.
The black part of the dash wrenches outwards at the bottom, but won't come out with the radio cage still fitted, so this has to be removed as well.

Well,Ihave taken 2 screws out of the bottom, 3 out of the ashtray aperture.But it still seems to be stuck like S***to a blanket.Rang a dealer up and he said he thought there were 2 more screws behind the radio.But then he mentioned some clips somewhere.
