Consumer Description

MY POWER STEERING KEEPS GOING OUT WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS AND ON HIGHWAY/FREEWAY. IT WILL DO IT AT LOW SPEED AND HIGH SPEEDS. IT WILL ALSO GO OUT WHILE TURNING OR NOT TURNING. WHEN IT GOES OUT IT IS WAY TO HARD TO TURN IF YOU ARE NOT MOVING AND HARD TO TURN EVEN WHILE YOUR MOVING. IT IS ELECTRIC POWER STEERING. I HAVE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BAKE ON TO RESET IT BUT CAN ONLY DOING WHILE PARKED AND IN A SAFE SPOT TO DO SO. AFTER I TURN THE CAR ON AND OFF TO RESET THE POWER STEERING IT WILL JUST GO BACK ON AFTER A SHORT TRIP. IT CONSTANTLY GOES ON. ONCE IT IS ON IT DOES NOT GET BETTER AGAIN. ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL IT SAYS POWER STEERING PROBLEM WHEN IT GOES OUT.
