Consumer Description
WHILE TURNING (BOTH LEFT AND RIGHT) AT LOW SPEEDS THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY LOSES POWER STEERING CONTROL AND BECOMES VERY DIFFICULT TO COMPLETE THE TURN. COMPLETING THE TURNS BECOMES SO DIFFICULT, MY WIFE HAS TO STOP THE VEHICLE FORWARD MOTION AND BACK UP, OR WHEN CROSSING TRAFFIC, HAS TO CONTINUE IN A STRAIGHT PATH FROM WHERE CONTROL WAS LOST AND HOPE SHE CAN MAKE IT ACROSS TO AVOID A WRECK. TIMES OF OCCURRENCE ARE AT RANDOM WHEN MAKING TURNS ACROSS TRAFFIC FROM LOW SPEEDS, TURNING IN PARKING LOTS AND ANY OTHER TIME LOW SPEED TURNS ARE REQUIRED. FREQUENCY SEEMS TO BE INCREASING AS TIME GOES ON. *TR
