| Description of the problem | After you fuel up the vehicle will shortly stall several times afterwards. Leaving you with no power steering. I am concerned about the safety of myself and others. This is happened to me many times on public roads and even highways. I would have almost crashed if i had not noticed that i had lost power steering. I have also heard complaints from other people who say the same about there dodge pickup of similar year. I feel like this should be a big concern, and i should be doing more to fix this problem. |
