Consumer Description
VEHICLE WAS SLOWING TO TURN AND AT 15MPH THE STEERING LOCKED UP MAKING THE VEHICLE UNCONTROLLABLE. VEHICLE WAS STOPPED BY MEDIAN CURB AND STEERING SOMEHOW UNLOCKED. TOOK VEHICLE TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY REPLACED THE STEERING GEAR, RACK AND PINION, AND POWER STEERING PUMP. NOW A LITTLE OVER 18MONTHS LATER THE VEHICLE HAS STARTED LOSING POWER STEERING AGAIN. DEALERSHIP IS QUOTING ME $2100 TO FIX WHEN THEY REPLACED THE LAST PART UNDER A WARRANTY/RECALL. *TR
