| Description of the problem | I was driving down i81 in pa. It was approx. 35 degrees outside and raining. I was driving 69-70 mph and entered into a left hand curve. My steering wheel locked up to where i couldn't get it to turn left any further than the slight left needed for the curve. After several attempts of trying to over power the stuck steering wheel feeling, it returned to a normal steering wheel feeling. I have uploaded a video i took. I took the video after it happened to me the first time going straight down the interstate at 65-70 mph. Here is the link to the video: https://www. Youtube. Com/watch? V=yzy8x7c01-s |
