| Description of the problem | I was driving down the interstate at 70mph and the power steering went completely out. A message popped up on the dash stating "service power steering now". I was unable to move the vehicle off of the interstate. I saw a recall for this issue for the year make and model of this vehicle but am enraged that when i check the vin it comes up with no recall. Obviously there is an issue with the product and will not be covered on the current recall. This repair roughly will cost 2200. 00 dollars per the local dealer. |
