Consumer Description

I TURNED RIGHT AT A LIGHT AND AS SOON AS I BEGAN TO PICK UP SPEED MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND THE POWER STEERING LIGHT INDICATOR CAME ON. I WAS UNABLE TO CONTROL MY CAR. THIS WAS VERY FRIGHTENING YET SINCE I WAS NOT ON THE FREEWAY YET I WAS ABLE TO MERGE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED MY CAR OFF AND BACK ON YET THE STEERING WARNING LIGHT WAS STILL ON AND I COULD NOT MOVE MY CAR. I CALLED THE TOW TRUCK AND AFTER MY CAR SAT FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES AND I RESTATED THE VEHICLE THE POWER STEERING LIGHT WAS OFF AND MY STEERING WHEEL WAS MOVABLE. DUE TO THE DANGEROUS NATURE OF THIS EVENT I AM CONTACTING GM BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE MY CAR AT A HIGH SPEED WITH CHANCE I WOULD LOOSE CONTROL OF MY CAR. *TR
