Consumer Description

I was driving at about 30 MPH when the steering wheel froze all of a sudden and Electric Power Steering Malfunction indicator turned on suddenly. The steering became very hard to turn left or right. I was on a road with light traffic so somehow pulled over to the side with manual strength and turned off power. When I turned back the vehicle, it seemed to be ok and I drove for about a mile, only to have the same issue again. The issue seemed to be intermittent which makes it more dangerous. I took the car to a dealer but they could not reproduce the issue and reset the error code. The issue showed up again immediately after leaving dealers place. The car is driven less than 50k miles and about 7 years old. I am the first owner. The power Steering works intermittently, but then again freezes up making it very dangerous to drive. This is a massive safety issue if the system just stops in middle of road as not everyone will have the physical strength to steer the car.I have seen multiple similar reports from people online.
