Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING MY 2012 ACURA TSX WHEN MY STEERING BECAME VERY DIFFICULT TO TURN AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. A WARNING SIGN CAME UP ON MY DASHBOARD SAYING "CHECK POWER STEERING". I ONLY HAVE 79,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE AND HAVE SEEN TONS OF OTHER COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. ADDITIONALLY, ACURA/HONDA PROVIDED A WARRANTY EXTENSION ON EARLIER MODELS.
