Component | STEERING |
Product type code | VEHICLE |
Description of the problem | All of a sudden my power steering went out it's hard to steer the vehicle while making a left turn, on a city street with a lot of traffic and pedestrians. The road was dry. No indications that the car was having an issue prior to that. I checked the power steering fluid and the belt i don't hear a sound. I've asked several people about this issue and a lot of people have reported this as being a problem with the vehicle. I was in the middle of a turn and the power steering went out which caused me to almost hit the curb and pedestrians on the sidewalk. There has to be a resolution because this is a problem not with just my vehicle up with many others. When i bought the vehicle i was told that it had a new power steering unit in it. |
