Consumer Description

WHEN I TURNED THE CAR ON THE STEERING SYSTEM FAULT MESSAGE CAME ON THE DASH AND CAUSED MY STEERING WHEEL TO LOCK UP. I COULDN'T TURN IT AT ALL. ALL I WAS ABLE TO DO WAS DRIVE STRAIGHT BUT I WAS IN THE PARKING LOT SO I HAD TO TURN. AFTER TURNING THE CAR OFF AND ON AFTER A COUPLE OF TRIES IT EVENTUALLY UNLOCKED AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AGAIN. HOWEVER THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED. I DON'T WANT IT TO HAPPEN WHILE I'M IN THE CAR WITH MY TWO CHILDREN. ANOTHER ISSUE THAT HAPPENS IS WHEN I PUMP GAS IN THE CAR IT SEEMS TO STALLS ONCE I DRIVE LIKE IT WANTS TO SHUT OFF BUT IT DOESN'T.
