Consumer Description

MY WIFE DRIVES THIS CAR. SHE AND MY SON WHO HAD BORROWED IT CLAIMED THAT "THE STEERING ISN'T WORKING PROPERLY". ON 16 AUGUST I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A RIGHT TURN INTO A SIDE STREET. AS I WAS DOING SO THE POWER STEERING FAILED AND I WAS UNABLE TO NEGOTIATE THE CORNER WITHOUT CROSSING INTO THE ON COMING LANE. I WAS TRAVELING AT ABOUT 3-5MPH. AT THAT MOMENT A CAR APPROACHED IN THE ADJACENT ONCOMING LANE AND TO AVOID HITTING THAT VEHICLE I HIT THE BREAKS SUDDENLY AND STOPPED THE VEHICLE. I WAS ABLE TO COMPLETE THE TURN AFTER THE OTHER VEHICLE MOVED ON FROM THE STOP LINE AND (CONJECTURE) I WAS ACCELERATING. SINCE THAT INCIDENT I HAVE DRIVEN THE VEHICLE AND HAVE HAD NUMEROUS SIMILAR INCIDENTS - TODAY'S DATE IS 8/17/2014.. *TR
