Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING MY SATURN ION 2004 MY POWER STEERING KEPT TURNING OFF PERIODICALLY, MY CAR IS STANDARD SO I ACTUALLY TURNED OFF THE CAR WHILE DRIVING PRESSING MY CLUTCH IN AND RESTARTED MY CAR. I DROVE LIKE THIS FOR ABOUT 5 MILES. I TOOK MY CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS TOLD THAT DUE TO THE FACT I WAS OVER 150000 MILES IT VOIDED MY WARRANTY FOR THE DEFECT TO MY STEERING MOTOR. I SPENT OVER 500 DOLLARS TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE, NOW KNOWING THAT IT WAS AN EXISTING DEFECT KNOWN BY THE MANUFACTURER. *TR
