Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE ON THE EXPRESSWAY, THE POWER STEERING LOCKED UP LIKE CAR HAD STALLED MOMENTARILY THEN REGAINED POWER. STARTLED I DECIDED TO EXIT FREEWAY AND WHILE MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN IT LOCKED SOLID AGAIN AND I HEARD LIKE A ACTUATOR MOTOR MAKE A BUZZING SOUND. THIS MADE ME VERY NERVOUS BECAUSE I LOST POWER TWICE. I CALLED ONSTAR RIGHT AWAY TO REPORT INCIDENT . THIS WAS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAVE DRIVEN THOUSANDS OF CARS IN MY LIFETIME AS I WAS A FORMER G.M. DEALER BUT I NEVER HAVE EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS . I AM VERY CONCERNED SOMEONE COULD BE INJURED SEVERELY IF THIS PROBLEM OCCURS IN THIS CAR OR OTHERS LIKE IT. *TR
