Consumer Description

ON MY WAY TO AN APPOINTMENT THE 'CHECK POWER STEERING SYSTEM' WARNING LIGHT CAME ON'I MADE IT HOME BUT HAD A HARD TIME TURNING THE STERRING WHEEL'I CHECKED IT LATER ON THAT DAY & THE LIGHT WAS NOT ON. THEREFORE, I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AGAIN FOR A FEW DAYS WITH NO PROBLEM. 6/8/18, ON MY WAY HOME AGAIN, THE LIGHT CAME ON & WILL NOT GO OFF. BOTH TIMES I WAS ONLY DRIVING ABOUT 45 MPH. THE LOCAL ACURA DEALER ADVISED ME TODAY (6/11) THE EPS UNIT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED & ESTIMATE TO REPLACE IT $1639. I DID MY RESEARCH & WHAT DO I SEE, TOO MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE. BOTH TIMES I WAS IN THE CITY & GOING NO MORE THAN 40 MPH.
