Consumer Description

MY POWER STEERING WENT OUT. IF I WARMED THE TRUCK UP AND SHIFT IT OFF, THEN RESTARTED IT THE STEERING WOULD WORK AGAIN. THEN THE VEHICLES STEERING WOULD GO OUT WHILE DRIVING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TURNED ON AND THEN THE STEERING LIGHT. NOW THE POWER STEERING DOESN'T WORK AT ALL. I AM TOLD FROM A MECHANIC WHO HOOKED UP TO MY COMPUTER THAT THIS IS AN EXTREMELY RARE INCIDENT FOR A TRUCK SO YOUNG. AT THIS TIME I AM BEING TOLD IT IS NOT A RECALL BUT IT CERTAINLY SEEMS LIKE A RECALL TO ME. THE POWER STEERING WOULD GO OUT WHILE DRIVING ON A ROAD OR HIGHWAY GOING STRAIGHT OR TURNING. *TR
