Consumer Description

WHILE MERGING INTO FREEWAY TRAFFIC ON THE 210W IN IRWINDALE, CA, WE EXPERIENCED MODERATE LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. THE YELLOW ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON, BUT THERE WAS NO WARNING BEEP AND THE PWR STR LIGHT DID NOT ACTIVATE. WITH DIFFICULTY WE WERE ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, THOUGH THERE WAS A DEFINITE INCREASE IN RISK OF COLLISION. WE INTEND TO RUN DIAGNOSTICS ON THE ENGINE CONTROL COMPUTER AND THE STEERING MOTOR. *TR
