Consumer Description

When turning into my subdivision off of a main road, my power steering completely failed when turning and I was stuck horizontally in the road. Luckily nobody was coming otherwise I would have been t-boned. There was no warning until after I was stuck that there was a “power steering failure” and it only flashed for a moment. I had my entire steering rack replaced 4 months ago because of the same issue.
