Consumer Description

WE WERE DRIVING AT ABOUT 45 MILES AN HOUR WHEN ADVANC TRAC AND POWER STEERING LIGHT CAME ON. THE STEERING GOT SUDDENLY VERY HARD TO MANEUVER HUSBAND HAD BOTH HAND TRYING TO KEEP IT STEADY, HE HAD TO PULL VERY HARD TO BE ABLE TO PULL IN GAS STATION TO GET OUT OF TRAFFIC. BLINKERS NO LONGER WORKED, TERRAIN KNOB TURNED OFF AND DIDN'T WORK. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A FATAL ACCIDENT IF WE WERE GOING AT HIGHER SPEEDS! THIS PROBLEM NEEDS TO BE RECALLED SO THAT NO ONE GETS KILLED
