NHTSA Complaint #11093288 — 2013 HONDA CROSSTOUR

ELECTRIC POWER STEERING WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING. I WAS DRIVING AT A LOW SPEED AND WAS LUCKY TO BE IN AN AREA THAT WASN'T HEAVY WITH TRAFFIC AT THE TIME AND I HAD MY NIECE AND 3 CHILDREN IN THE CAR. IT WAS VERY SCARY AND NERVE WRECKING. I HAD TO CALL A RIDE FOR MY FAMILY MEMBERS WHILE I WAITED FOR THE TOW TRUCK. THIS ISSUE IS VERY DANGEROUS. AFTER HAVING IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP I HAD TO PAY $1650 FOR THEM TO TELL ME THAT IT'S ONLY UNDER WARRANTY FOR ONE YEAR OR 12K MILES. DOES THIS MEAN THAT IN A YEAR I MIGHT HAVE THE HEAD ACHE OF HAVING TO COME OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS AGAIN OR EVEN WORSE GET HIT OR KILLED BECAUSE HONDA HAS FAULTY EQUIPMENT THAT THEY REFUSE TO REPLACE?
