Consumer Description
VEHICLE WAS TURNING AT A "T" INTERSECTION INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. WHEN CRANKING ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO TURN LEFT AND ACCELERATE, VEHICLE STEERING WHEEL JAMMED UP. THANKFULLY, VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO KEEP DRIVING & CLEAR INTERSECTION BEFORE APPROACHING CARS ARRIVED. UPON RESTARTING VEHICLE MEMORY SYSTEMS IN VEHICLE WERE ERASED AND AN ERROR MESSAGE FLASHED STATING TO ROLL DOWN THEN BACK UP DRIVER SIDE AND PASSENGER SIDE WINDOWS. LATER THAT EVENING WHEN PUTTING VEHICLE INTO REVERSE AND SHARPLY TURNING WHEEL TO THE LEFT THE VEHICLE LOST ALL POWER AND TURNED OFF COMPLETELY WHILE IN REVERSE. AGAIN, THANKFULLY, I WAS IN A DRIVE-WAY WITH NO OTHER TRAFFIC AROUND. WHEN I RE-STARTED THE VEHICLE THE STEREO MEMORY ERASED AND THE ROLL DOWN, THEN BACK UP DRIVER AND PASSENGER WINDOWS WARNING FLASHED AGAIN. THIS IS ALL UNSETTLING BECAUSE I FREQUENTLY DRIVE IN AREAS OF HEAVY TRAFFIC AND INTERSECTIONS THAT CAN BE TRICKY TO CROSS/TURN INTO THEREFOR REQUIRING MY VEHICLE TO RESPOND APPROPRIATELY AND NOT TURN OFF WHILE IN GEAR.
