| Description of the problem | After having the vehicle only 300 miles i experienced my steering locking up while going 70 on a slight turn. I took my foot off the gas pedal and applied the brake and then the steering went back to normal. I've experience this one other time after driving for an extended period of time but have a hard time recreating the conditions where it happens. *tt updated 9/21/18*jb |
