Consumer Description

DRIVING 40 MPH POWER STEERING WENT OUT ALMOST CAUSING CRASH OFF ROADWAY. AFTER REGAINING CONTROL, MOVED TO SHOULDER. TURNED OFF CAR, TURNED ON CAR, THEN WAS OK. THEN HAPPENED AGAIN WHEN LEAVING WORK - SENSORS ON AND NO RESET THIS TIME. HAD TO CAREFULLY LIMP IT HOME. TRIED REPLACING FUSE FOR STEERING - BUT DIDN'T WORK - WILL NEED TO GO TO DEALER. JUST WENT OUT TO GET PICTURE OF CODES - BUT IT'S WORKING AGAIN. SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG ELECTRICALLY!
