Consumer Description

STARTED THE CAR TO GO TO WORK AND HAD NO POWER STEERING. TOOK THE CAR TO THE MECHANIC AND HAD SOME BROKEN LINES REPLACED. TWO DAYS LATER WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT AGAIN. I LOST CONTROL AND ALMOST LANDED IN A DITCH. TOOK BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND THE SAME LINES BUT AGAIN.
