Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING LOCAL,STOPPED AT THE LIGHTS WHEN THE "CHECK POWER STEERING SYSTEM" SIGNAL CAME ON MY DASHBOARD SUDDENLY.I STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET,TURNED OFF THE ENGINE THEN TURNED IT ON,THE WARNING LIGHTS DISAPPEARED.CONTINUED DRIVING HOME WHEN THE SAME HAPPENED AGAIN.THE WHEELS BECAME EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO TURN ,SO I PARKED THE CAR.THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ISSUE BECAUSE IF THE STEERING WHEEL TIGHTEN UP ON ME WHILE I WAS DRIVING AT A HIGHER SPEED, I COULD HAVE LOST CONTROL OF MY VEICHLE AND SEVERELY INJURED MYSELF AND OTHERS AROUND ME. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT ISSUE THAT ACURA HAS TO LOOK AT AND MAKE IT A RECALL BECAUSE IT SEEMS TO HAVE HAPPEN TO SO MANY OTHER 2012 ACURA TSX OWNERS, I, MYSELF INCLUDED. P.S IT HAS AROUND 53K MILES ON IT
