Consumer Description

WHEN THE TRUCK IS STOPPED OR WHEN PARKING, THE POWER STEERING DISAPPEARS. WITH THE BRAKE APPLIED, THE STEERING WHEEL WON'T MOVE AT ALL. WITH THE BRAKE RELEASED, IT'S NEAR IMPOSSIBLE TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. I PURCHASED THIS TRUCK USED TWO YEARS AGO WITH JUST UNDER 11,000 MILES. IT IS LIKE NEW. THIS PROBLEM IS ANNOYING AT BEST AND COULD BE DANGEROUS IN AN EMERGENCY MANEUVER WITH HARD BRAKING. *TR
