Consumer Description

LITTLE OVER 30K MILES. ABOUT 47 MPH ON A 45 HIGHWAY AND NEEDED TO VEER RIGHT. I HAD MY MUSIC TURNED UP AND INSTEAD OF BREAKING I ALLOWED THE CAR TO COAST SO THE SPEED WOULD DROP BEFORE MY TURN I NEEDED TO MAKE. . WHEN I DROPPED TO A SPEED I WAS HAPPY WITH, THEN I START BREAKING AND THATS WHEN I REALIZED THE CAR HAD CUT OFF, THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, AND THE BRAKES BECAME TOUGHER TO PUSH. IT WAS A BUSY HIGHWAY AND A JUST AS BUSY RIGHT TURN THAT I WAS TRYING TO MAKE. I HAD TO THROW THE CAR IN NEUTRAL TO RESTART WHILE STILL ROLLING OR I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT.
