Consumer Description

THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING FAILED WHILE GOING AROUND A CURVE AT 35 MPH. THE FAILURE WAS SUDDEN WITHOUT ANY WARNING. THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING IS STILL NON FUNCTIONAL AND IS DUE TO BE EVALUATED NEXT WEEK. I AM GLAD THAT THE INCIDENT HAPPEN WHILE I WAS DRIVING INSTEAD OF MY WIFE OR CHILDREN BECAUSE THEY MAY HAVE HAD A HARDER TIME CONTROLING THE CAR SINCE THEY HAVE ALWAYS DRIVEN CARS WITH POWER STEERING
