Erractic/jerky steering

Customer advised steering is erractic/jerky intermittently. I have checked the steering sensor with the hand sent and both left and right track from 0% to 100%. I have also calibrated the steering sensor using the handset. Both drive motors have about the same amp draw when driving straight. I am thinking I have a bad drive motor. Any other suggestions?

Almost always a drive motor issue with these.
