Consumer Description

THE DIC SAYS POWER STEERING AND THE LIGHT ON THE DASH IS SHOWING A CAR WITH A WRENCH INSIDE OF IT. THE POWER STEERING WILL GO OUT INTERMITTENTLY CAUSING UNSAFE DRIVING CONDITIONS. IT CAN BE REMEDIED BY TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF THEN BACK ON. THE REMOTE START WILL NOT WORK WITH THIS LIGHT ON. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM BEFORE BUT AS THIS IS A USED CAR I DO NOT KNOW IF IT WAS PROPERLY FIXED OR ATTENDED TO. THIS HAS HAPPENED BOTH WHILE BACKING OUT (AND TURNING THE WHEEL TO THE LEFT) AND WHILE DRIVING ON A COUNTRY ROAD GOING APPROXIMATELY 45 MILES AN HOUR WITH THE WHEEL STRAIGHT.
