Consumer Description

A FEW HOURS AGO (2012 CIVIC SI) THE CHECK POWER STEERING SYSTEM INDICATOR CAME ON AS I WAS LEAVING THE PARKING LOT. IT WAS HECK TRYING TO STEER BACK INTO PARKING. CALLED THE DEALER; BUT SINCE IT WAS CLOSING TIME, HE ADVISED ME TO CALL BACK IN THE A.M. THE ENGINE SEEMS TO BE REVVING ITSELF WHEN I'M IN NEUTRAL. IT'S BEEN DOING THIS FOR SEVERAL MONTHS. THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THAT THE POWER STEERING STOPPED. *TR
