Consumer Description
THE ELECTRICAL POWER ASSISTED STEERING FAILED AGAIN WITHOUT WARNING. WHEN THIS UNIT CEASES OPERATION, IT ALSO AFFECTS THE VEHICLE POWER TRAIN BY SHUTTING DOWN THE TRACTION CONTROL AND THE ANTI LOCK BRAKING, IT SEEMS. WHEN THE ELECTRICAL ASSIST STOP WORKING, THE VEHICLE IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL AS IT TAKES ALL THE EFFORT A PERSON CAN MUSTER TO TURN THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS IS A VERY BAD STEERING SYSTEM.
