| Description of the problem | I was driving my jeep yesterday morning going 60mph. The temperature was in the 30's. I was heading into a left hand turn when my steering wheel would not turn. I tapped on the brakes to slow down as i was afraid i was going to run off the road with my two young children in the jeep. When i slowed to around 40 my jeep steering came back. It was a very scary situation. |
