Consumer Description

DRIVING ON A CORNER ONRAMP THE TRUCK'S POWER STEERING GAVE OUT AND THE VEHICLE BECAME ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER. I APPLIED THE BRAKES AND THE STEERING RETURNED. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING. NO ISSUES WERE FOUND WITH THE POWER STEERING PUMP. RECENTLY HAD THE POWER STEERING SYSTEM FLUSHED AND THAT SEEMED TO IMPROVE THE PROBLEM; HOWEVER, IT'S STARTING TO RETURN. WILL BE TAKING IT BACK IN AGAIN TO SEE IF THE ISSUE CAN BE FIXED. *TR
