Consumer Description

VAN LOSE POWER STEERING DURING HEAVY RAIN ONLY. I PURCHASE THIS VAN IN JUNE/JULY 2018 RECENTLY HAD POWER STEERING CHECK AND NO ISSUES FOUND. YET THIS THE FIFTH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. TODAY I WAS DRIVING IN THE RAIN TO PICKUP MY DAUGHTER FROM SCHOOL AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THE WHEEL TIGHTEN UP AND I WAS UNABLE TURN. I HAD TO TURN ON MY HAZARDS LIGHT AND TURN CAR OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. AFTER LETTING VEHICLE SIT ABOUT 15 MINUTES I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME. I REPEAT IT ONLY HAPPENS IN THE RAIN WHY I BELIEVE THERE IS A MANUFACTOR DEFECT AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.
