Consumer Description

THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT LEAVING DRIVING A SERIOUS HAZARD. I HAVE READ THIS IS NOT UNCOMMON IN THIS MODEL. ALSO, I WAS INFORMED THAT IT COULD LOCK UP COMPLETELY. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE YET THERE IS NOT A RECALL. THE CAR IS IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENS ON BOTH CITY AND HIGHWAY.
