You'll need to examine it to find out which part is loose. Does it have a steering gear or is it a rack & pinion steering? Sometimes (not often) a steering gear can be tightened but attempt that only after you've checked EVERYTHING else. Also, what seems to be a loose steering can often be a misaligned front end. A good, reputable front end specialist can help you with the problem. Most cities have a well trusted front end shop who will honestly tell you what's wrong and charge you a fair price for the repairs. (HINT! It' probably won't be the guy in the dealership) Find out who is recommended by the shops that don't do their own front end work. Check with TRUSTWORTHY used car lots to see who does their work (again, the ones who don't do their own). The most difficult part is to find someone who has been in the business for a while and has a good reputation.

What if your 1998 town cars has troubles with the steering wheel it spins freely and the wheels will not turn What is the fix for this problem?
If the steering wheel spins freely but the wheels don't turn, the steering shaft (which runs from the steering wheel, into the engine compartment, and down to the steering box) probably came apart. Usually there are one or more joints in the steering shaft, to allow it to angle around obstructions in the engine compartment. It may be that the shaft separated from one of these joints. Find the steering shaft in the engine compartment and see if it's continuous all the way down to the steering box. Also see if when you turn the steering wheel, if the shaft turns also. If it doesn't, then there's a problem with the steering wheel's mounting to the shaft. At the steering wheel, the shaft is usually cut with a bunch of little notches, which the steering wheel hub slides onto. If these notches have gotten stripped, then the hub has nothing to grip, and the wheel will spin free without moving the steering shaft.
