Consumer Description
ELECTRIC POWER STEERING QUIT WORKING WHILE DRIVING; POWER STEERING ERROR MESSAGE ALSO APPEARED ON THE DRIVER INFORMATION DISPLAY. THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD THE POWER STEERING RECALL PERFORMED RECENTLY (APPROXIMATELY 3 MONTHS AGO - RECALL CONSISTS OF REPLACING THE POWER STEERING ASSIST MOTOR). WHEN IT QUIT WORKING, I PULLED OVER, SHUT OFF THE CAR, THEN RESTARTED IT, TO SEE IF THE POWER STEERING WOULD START WORKING AGAIN. SAME ERROR, STILL NO POWER STEERING. POWER STEERING RETURNED UNEXPECTEDLY WHILE GOING AROUND A TURN APPROXIMATELY 3 MILES LATER, CAUSING THE CAR TO TURN MUCH SHARPER (AS THE EFFORT NEEDED TO TURN WAS UNEXPECTEDLY REDUCED). *TR
