Consumer Description

I was traveling 30 to 35 miles a hour down about a 4 degree incline with a slight corner at the bottom when my power steering quit on me,no vehicles were coming my way, i stopped the truck and i was in the oncoming, i had to put alot of muscle just to get back in my lane, when i got the truck home i let it sit for a little while, got back in and it was working, i started to take it for a drive and the power steering quit,so i parked it and tried to drive it again and the same as before the power steering quit,so i cannot safely drive it now. I was not in an accident but was able to get it home.
