Consumer Description

WE HAVE OWNED OUR VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 5 YEARS. SPORADICALLY OVER THE COURSE OF THOSE 5 YEARS THE CHECK CHARGING SYSTEM INDICATOR HAS COME ON WHEN WE TURN ON THE CAR AND THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT. WE HAVE HAD IT CHECKED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. IT IS HAPPENING MORE FREQUENTLY AND BOTH THE TRANSMISSION AND ALTERNATOR HAVE BEEN CHECKED AND ARE FINE. I'M INVESTIGATING ONLINE IT SEEMS LIKE A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. I FEEL LIKE THERE IS A DEFECT SOMEWHERE AND IT NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED. IT IS SCARY AND VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT GOES OUT.
