Consumer Description

MY POWER STEERING IS CONSTANTLY GOING OUT ON MY CAR WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AS WELL AS CITY STREETS AND I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND PARK FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE IT WILL WORK AGAIN. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AND I'VE BARROWLY AVOIDED AN ACCIDENT SEVERAL TIMES MOST RECENTLY IT HAS FAILED 3 TIMES IN 2 HOURS HOLE DRIVING NORMALLY. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR THE PAST YEAR BUT INCIDENTS OF FAILURE HAVE INCREASED SINCE REACHING 156000 MILES ON MY CAR. IT APPEARS THAT THERE IS A RECAL FOR THIS ISSUE FOR MY YEAR AND MODEL AND YET I'VE BEEN TOLD THERE IS A RECALL BUT MY CAR ISN'T COVERED
