| Description of the problem | I was on my way home from a trip out of state when i was driving i can feel that it was something wrong with the steering wheel it was kind of stiff. As i continued to drive it got worse to the point to where it had a mind of its on and the light came on saying loss of power wheel steering. I then got off on an exit thinking i needed power steering fluid stop at an orileys store and bought some to come to the fact that my car doesn't take power steering fluid its electrical. I still had and hour to go before i made it to my one of my destination, it was a hard drive because then the steering wheel basically locked up. |
