Consumer Description
POWER STEERING STOPPED WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL POWER STEERING PUMP, IT IS ELECTRONIC. WHEN A NORMAL ONE FAILS, YOU CAN STILL STEER EASILY WHEN MOVING. IT ONLY BECOMES HARD WHEN STOPPED OR MOVING SLOW. THE ELECTRONIC ONE GETS EXTREMELY HARD EVEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHICH DIAGNOSED IT AS THE RACK AND PINION. I HAVE SEEN ONLINE THAT THERE ARE MANY THAT HAVE FAILED WITH THE SAME ISSUE FOR MULTIPLE YEARS FROM AROUND 2011 ON WHICH TELLS ME IT IS FAIRLY COMMON EVEN ON VEHICLES WITH LOW MILEAGE. *TR
