Description of the problem	While driving my vehicle at 65mpg on the highway with my baby in the car, the steering jerked to the left. I almost crashed into a desiel truck !! I then correct it and pulled over. I dropped my son off at my mom's home and went to the garage to have it looked at. On the way, it lost all power steering and i could not turn correctly. Someone hit the back of my car and shoved it into another vehicle in the front. So now my back and fron in looks like crap and i have no power steering.. But my son and i are still alive.. When researching this issue, i found out it was not my fault or my car.. This is a faulty manufacture safty issue that has not even been researched yet !! There have been so many customer complaints about the danger of this vehicle and this issue i can not believe it's still on the road. Https://www. Carcomplaints. Com/kia/sorento/2004/steering/steering. Shtml and to find out the state was aware of it and just never even looked into protecting us. This is a danger and needs to be recalled asap before someone looses their life and the life of their child like i almost did !!!!
