Consumer Description

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45MPH ON A 2 LANE ROAD, MY STEERING WHEEL BECAME STUCK OR FROZEN IN ITS POSITION. I WAS UNABLE TO COURSE CORRECT, AND ENDED UP BRAKING INTO THE MEDIAN. I NEVER LOST ENGINE POWER, OR POWER STEERING. THE WHEEL WAS SIMPLY LOCKED, STUCK, OR FROZEN. ONCE STOPPED, I TRIED THE WHEEL AGAIN, AND IT WORKED. I'VE SINCE TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO JEEP, AND THEY ARE ATTEMPTING REPAIR.
