Consumer Description

HAVE A 2013 SLT 1500 THAT WE PURCHASED USED ABOUT 2 YEARS AGO IT CURRENTLY HAS 68491 IN MILES. THE POWER STEERING HAS CEASED WORKING. WHILE BACKING I RECEIVED A SERVICE POWER STEERING WARNING ON THE DASH AND THEN NO POWER STEERING. MY WIFE DROVE THIS TRUCK THE DAY BEFORE THIS OCCURRED HAD THIS HAPPENED WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING WE LIVE IN THE COUNTRY AND THERE ARE LOTS OF CURVES IN OUR ROADS THIS COULD HAVE BEEN SERIOUS. THERE NEEDS TO BE SOMETHING DONE IF EPS IS GOING TO CONTINUE TO BE USED SOME TYPE OF PRE-WARNING OR SAFETY ASSIST IN ADDITION TO EPS.
