Consumer Description

POWER STEERING STOPS WORKING CAUSING LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL. AT THE TIME I WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 20 MPH IN TOWN. HAD POWER STEERING FLUID LEAK IN THE PAST WHICH WAS FIXED BUT ISSUE STILL OCCURS. TODAY IT HAPPENED THEE TIMES WITHIN 30 MINUTES OF DRIVING. I CHECKED THE STEERING FLUID AND IT WAS FULL. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS VEHICLE SINCE IT WAS A FEW YEARS OLD.
