Consumer Description

OUR 2004 CADILLAC DEVILLE POWER STEERING WILL FAIL DURING A RAINFALL OR VERY MISTY WEATHER. THE POWER STEERING WILL STOP WORKING AND THE CAR WILL BE EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO STEER. THIS MAY HAPPEN AT ANY SPEED, AND THE FAILURE WILL CONTINUE FOR BETWEEN ABOUT 4 AND 10 SECONDS. THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES DURING THE PAST THREE YEARS, AND IT HAS OCCURRED AT VARIOUS SPEEDS - 25 MPH, 35 MPH AND 60 MPH. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO BE ASSOCIATED WITH DRIVING THROUGH STANDING WATER, BUT MERELY REQUIRES THAT IT IS RAINING OR THAT THERE IS A HEAVY MIST. DURING DRY WEATHER THERE IS NO PROBLEM WITH THE CAR'S POWER STEERING. *TR
