Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 50 MPH THROUGH A CURVE THE POWER STEERING STOPPED WORKING AND ALMOST CAUSED ME TO HIT THE CENTER DIVIDER. THIS IS MY DAUGHTER'S CAR AND IF SHE WAS DRIVING THE CAR SHE WOULD HAVE WRECKED. I'M A PRETTY STRONG GUY AND IT TOOK ALL OF MY STRENGTH TO TURN THE WHEEL. A POWER STEERING ASSIST WARNING CAME UP ON THE DASH. I'M TAKING THE CAR IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT, BUT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS DUE TO THIS BEING A HUGE SAFETY RISK.
