Description of the problem | When at low speeds, in a parking lot, the power steering goes out sometimes. When we are trying to park in a parking space, it is very difficult, because the power steering almost always fails. This is a serious safety concern to me. One of these days it is going to cause us to hit another vehicle or worse, a person. I have not took it to a shop. I have researched the issue and it seems to be a very common problem. My enclave has 125,000 miles on it, we bought it a little over a year ago and has had this issue since we bought it. |
