Description of the problem	My 2007 toyota solara power steering locked up initially 12/17/2009 while exiting a freeway offramp causing me to continue veering left into the curb fortunately with no injury to myself or car. The cars behind, also exiting, nearly slammed into me but had enough room to stop and swerve around. The wheel was locked for nearly 2 minutes then finally released while the car remained running with no engine failure. The same issue occurred 12/24/2009 in the evening while exiting a parking lot which again fortunately no one hit me. The steering wheel did not unlock for nearly two minutes again with no engine failure. Currently the car is with toyota dealer and has had no past history of issues and undergoes regular scheduled maintenance. It is currently being further diagnosed after i filed a complaint 12/28/2009 since the service team representative was advising me the car will be released and to bring it in if another incident occurs. I am reporting this issue as the third time may be fatal to myself or others. It is unacceptable for a dealership to release a car which could cause fatality. As a result i am awaiting approval from the dealer to approve the change out all technical components that deal with the power steering.
