Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING AND THE CAR WAS RUNNING FINE WITH NO WARNING OF ANY PROBLEMS. I WENT THROUGH A TOLL BOOTH, ACCELERATED AND ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AND BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN THE WHEEL. THE POWER STEERING ASSIST FAILURE WARNING CAME ON IN THE MESSAGE CENTER. IF THIS WERE TO OCCUR ON A CORNER THERE WOULD BE NO WAY TO SAVE IT. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAVE NO OTHER WAY OF GETTING AROUND. NOW EVERY TIME I GET INTO MY CAR, I AM PUTTING MY LIFE ON THE LINE. NOT SAFE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE AS I SEE NOW MANY PROBLEMS JUST LIKE MINE HAVE OCCURRED TO THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE. I PURCHASED MY CAR ONLY 8 MONTHS AGO AND HAVE PUT AROUND 9,000 MILES ON IT. *TR
