Consumer Description

AFTER DRIVING FOR 2 HOURS AT HIGHWAY SPEED, 90+ DEGREES AMBIENT, I STOPPED THE CAR TO DISCHARGE A PASSENGER. WHEN I RESTARTED THE CAR, THE POWER ASSIST HAD FAILED. I WAS ABLE TO PARK THE CAR WITH CONSIDERABLE MANUAL EFFORT. 2 HOURS LATER I STARTED THE CAR AND THE POWER ASSIST STEERING WORKED NORMALLY. AFTER ABOUT A MONTH THERE HAVE BEEN NO RECURRENCES. WHEN I REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO MY DEALER THE SERVICE REP WANTED TO CHARGE ME $100 TO READ THE DIAGNOSTIC COMPUTER.
