Consumer Description

WHILE VEHICLE IS ON AND OPERATING AT SPEEDS OF 5 MPH TO 65 MPH THE POWER STEERING WILL COMPLETELY GO OUT MAKING CONTROL OF THE CAR MANUALLY. ONCE I AM ABLE TO REGAIN POSITIVE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE I AM ABLE TO PUT INTO PARK TURN OFF IGNITION. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE THE POWER STEERING IS ENGAGED BACK TO COMPLETE NORMAL AS IF THERE WAS NEVER A PROBLEM. AGAIN I START UP THE VEHICLE AND START OPERATING IT DRIVING TO MY DESTINATION AND OUT OF NOWHERE WHILE IN MOTION THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT SENDING THE VEHICLE INTO MANUAL CONTROL MAKING IT EXTREMELY HARD TO CONTROL. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3-5 TOTAL TIMES AT VARIOUS SPEEDS FROM 5 MPH ALL THE UP TO 65 MPH WHILE I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE
