Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR, THE POWER STEERING LIGHT RANDOMLY FLICKERED AND THE FRONT WHEELS LOCKED. THE CAR STARTED TO MAKE A NOISE AND I COULD BARELY STEER THE CAR TO A SAFE AREA. I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF. I DECIDED TO TURN THE CAR BACK ON AND THE MESSAGE HAD DISAPPEARED AND THE CAR STARTED TO WORK PROPERLY.IT WAS SO SCARY AND COULD HAVE BEEN FATAL. THIS WAS THE SECOND TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED IN THE LAST 3 MONTHS AFTER SEEING THE DEALER AND CONSULTING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THE DEALER DIDN'T SEEM TO MAKE A BIG DEAL OUT OF THE ISSUE BUT IT IS A SERIOUS HAZARD TO MYSELF AND THE OTHER DRIVERS AROUND ME. *TR
