Consumer Description

COMPLAINT INVOLVING POWER STEERING: ON JUNE 16TH WHEN I WAS ABOUT TO HEAD HOME FROM A RESTAURANT THE CAR GAVE ME A POWER STEERING ERROR AND THE STEERING WHEEL WOULDN'T MOVE. I HAD TO TURN OFF THE CAR AND START IT BACK UP FOR IT TO GO AWAY. I MADE IT HOME THAT NIGHT BUT THE NEXT MORNING WHEN I WAS LEAVING TO WORK IN THE MORNING IT GAVE ME THE SAME ERROR AND I WASN'T ABLE TO GET THE CODE TO GO AWAY NOR DRIVE THE CAR. SINCE I COULDN'T TAKE THE CHANCE OF IT HAPPENING WHILE I'M OUT OF TOWN WORKING. I HAVEN'T BEEN USING THE TRUCK. THIS ALSO HAPPENED TO MY FRIENDS 2014 RAM AND HIS CHARGER. THE SAME WEEK IT HAPPENED TO MY TRUCK.
