Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE EXPRESS WAY, AND MY POWER STEERING WARNING LIGHT FLASHED ACROSS MY MILEAGE, AND I LOST ALL POWER STEERING. VERY DIFFICULT TO STEER CAR. I GET TO WORK TURN MY CAR OFF. AND WHEN I LEAVE WORK, I START MY CAR AND I HAVE FULLY FUNCTIONAL POWERSTEERING AGAIN. BUT NOW WHEN I DRIVE IN THE COURSE OF 2MILES MY POWER STEERING FLASHES THE WARNING LIGHT AND I LOOSE ALL POWER STEERING. I CAN TURN MY CAR OFF AND RESTART IT AND I ONCE AGAIN HAVE POWER STEERING. WHEN I DRIVE IN A COURSE OF 15 MILES MY POWER STEERING FAILS AND SHUT COMPLETELY OFF ABOUT 15-20 TIMES. THIS IS VERY VERY DANGEROUS AND VERY INCONVENIENT. I HAVE A SMALL CHILD AND THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE ME TO HAVE A WRECK. AND SERIOUSLY INJURE MYSELF OR HER. *TR
