Consumer Description
ON NOV. 7, AS I WAS CUTTING THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE RIGHT TO PARK, I LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING WITHOUT REASON. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TRIED TO SEE IF I TURN THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT WOULD IT TURN THE WHEELS TO THE LEFT AND STILL NOT STEERING GUIDED THE WHEELS. THE WHEELS REMAINED LOCKED IN ONE POSITION...THE POSITION I LAST GUIDED THE STEERING WHEEL BEFORE IT GAVE OUT. THIS IS ALMOST ATLEAST $1200 DOLLARS WORTH OF WORK. I NEED TO JUST GET THIS RECALL DONE THERE IS TOO MANY OTHER CARS WITH THE SAME POWER STEERING ISSUE. WHAT IS THIS HAPPENED TO ME CHANGING LANES ON THE INTERSTATE THIS WOULD HAVE BEEN REALLY BAD!
