Description of the problem	I was about the change lane and i felt that the steering wheel is harder to turn than usual. I was turning right. I immediately pulled over to the nearest street and parked. I left the car running. After a minute the steering wheel was locked i couldn't move it. Then, all the lights on the dashboard turned off and the ac stopped. Many warning lights turned on. I turned off the car and i could not turn it on again. It was towed to the dealership (it is under warranty) and they said it was the alternator and the battery. They replaced the alternator and the battery and said it was fine. I took the car back, paid for battery and after 20miles i felt again some glitches in the steering. I immediately pulled over to the nearest parking lot and i could not turn the steering wheel anymore. The car was on but the steering was locked. I turned off the car and again, i could not start it. I am really afraid because if this happened on the freeway and i was in the middle lane, i would not be able to turn my steering wheel. I would not know what to do. What is worse, the official dealer 'fixed it' but the same issue arose after 20 miles again. What if i was to go on a trip? I am really worried about what is going on with the steering. And i paid for the battery which in the end may not be a problem at all. I feel ripped off and the car is only 44,400miles and it is 3 yrs old.
