Consumer Description
Driving at a low speed, my steering wheel seemed to lock, mid turn. A message appeared on my display screen saying, "POWER STEERING ASSIST FAULT." I turned off the vehicle and restarted it, the message disappeared and all was fine. Aproximately 20 miles later, while climbing a steep grade, the message reappeared and steering became extremely difficult. I was able to get it to the side of the road at the top of the hill. The message has appeared ever since. I had to have the truck towed back to my residence. The safety issue is alarming due to the sudden inability to steer.
