Consumer Description

I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON THE HIGHWAY AND I NOTICED MY TURN WAS VERY EASY TO THE LEFT BUT HARD TO TURN TO THE RIGHT. A FEW MILES LATER DOWN THE ROAD I COULD BARELY MOVE MY STEERING WHEEL AT ALL AND THEN THE MESSAGE POWER STEERING POPPED UP ON MY INFORMATION CENTER AS MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP AS I ATTEMPTED TO MAKE A TURN. UNFORTUNATELY I HAD TO GO OVER A CURB AND INTO A PARKING LOT BECAUSE OF THE MISHAP. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND MY STEERING WAS OKAY FOR A WHILE BUT THEN IT WOULD LOCK UP LATER AGAIN. I DID THIS PROCESS TWICE PAYING ATTENTION TO STEERING TO MAKE IT HOME SINCE I WAS ONLY A MILE AND A HALF AWAY.
