Consumer Description

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD AT APPROXIMATELY 35MPH WHEN MY POWER STEERING COMPLETELY WENT OUT. I HAD TO USE EXTREME FORCE TO MANEUVER MY VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED IT OFF, WAITED ABOUT 5 MINUTES, AND THEN TURNED IT BACK ON. THE POWER STEERING WORKED FOR ABOUT 1 MILE, AT WHICH TIME I LOST MY POWER STEERING. I WAS UNABLE TO COMPLETE A TURN ON A ROUNDABOUT AND ALMOST HIT ANOTHER VEHICLE BECAUSE IT WAS SO DIFFICULT TO STEER. *TR
