Consumer Description

THE ELECTRIC POWER STEERING MODULE (EPS) FAILED AT 90,0000 MILES. RESEARCH ONLINE AT OTHER WEBSITES REVEALED THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT. THE LOCAL ACURA DEALERS QUOTED 1400 FOR THE REPAIR. MY WIFE STARTED THE CAR ONE DAY AND THE POWER STEERING WAS NO LONGER FUNCTIONING. THE LACK OF POWER STEERING MADE THE CAR VERY DIFFICULT FOR HER TO DRIVE AROUND TOWN.
