Description of the problem	While driving approximately 20-30mph foot on the break i was making a right turn into a parking lot and the steering stopped working. Car was still running but steering was dead no warning lights were lit on the dash after about 4 seconds the steering came back to normal. This is the second time this happened to me. I purchased the subaru new it has 7,220 miles on it. The first time it happened same scenario car had about 5k miles on it.
