Consumer Description

THE CAR LOST POWER STEERING AND WAS VIRTUALLY INCAPABLE OF DRIVING. THIS ONLY OCCURS WHEN TRYING TO PARK OR DRIVING AT VERY LOW SPEEDS. I WAS UNABLE TO PARALLEL PARK AND AS A RESULT IT TOOK OVER 30 MINUTES OF EFFORT TO TRY AND GET MY CAR CORRECTLY INTO THE SPOT. I HAD TO KEEP SHUTTING THE CAR OFF AND TURNING IT BACK ON TO TRY AND GET THE WHEEL TO TURN. THIS WOULD ONLY BRIEFLY FIX THE STEERING FOR A MATTER OF SECONDS AND WAS STILL HARD TO TURN DURING THOSE SECONDS. EVENTUALLY, I JUST GAVE UP AND MOVED MY CAR INTO A SPOT THAT DID NOT REQUIRE PARALLEL PARKING. HOWEVER, THIS TOO WAS AN ISSUE TO PARK. I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE NUMEROUS TIMES AND IT POSSES AS A SERIOUS SAFELY ISSUE WHEN USING THE CAR. *TR
