Consumer Description
TAKATA RECALL, AS I WAS DROPPING MY DAUGHTER OFF AT THE BUS STOP I TRIED TO PULL BACK UP TO MY HOUSE AND THE POWER STEERING CAME ON AND THE WHEEL WAS HARD TO TURN WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION AND THERE WAS ALOT OF CARS COMING MY WAY AS I WAS TRYING TO TURN. I TOLD MY HUSBAND ABOUT IT HE WENT TO CHECK THAT IT HAD POWER STEERING FLUID IN IT AND IT WAS NOT LOW AT ALL THEN HE GOT IN IT TO DRIVE AND IT WORKED JUST FINE. THAT WAS A SCARY EXPERIENCE FOR ME. ANOTHER INCIDENT WHEN I WENT TO GO GET MY CAR INSPECTED THE THIRD BRAKE LIGHT WOULD NOT COME ON BUT WHEN I WENT TO MY MOTHER IN LAWS IT WORKED JUST FINE AND WHEN I LEFT TO GO HOME LASTNIGHT IT WAS COMING ON WHEN I WASN'T EVEN PUSHING THE BRAKES SO ME AND MY HUSBAND FIGURED IT WAS A SHORTAGE IN IT OR THE WIRES NEED REPLACED. SOMEONE NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS BEFORE THERE BE AN ACCIDENT. I WAS DOING SOME RESEARCH ABOUT MY VEHICLE AND I SEEN THAT IT HAD SERVERAL RECALLS.
