Description of the problem	While driving the vehicle (2004 toyota sienna), in an effort to make a turn, the steering wheel would lock, and not allow you to turn either direction for multiple moments. After taking it to toyota about 3-4 times (about dec 2009), they finally determined that it was a system failure in a self contained unit, that would prevent you from seeing it in the form of low power steering fluid, etc. At that time, it was repaired and considered to be under warranty. In the past month or so, this being middle of jan 2014, the steering has been having similar issues. Have taken it to the dealership multiple times, and the time prior to my drop off yesterday, they stated that it involved the "reservoir" and installed a new one. After a few days of having it, the issue happened again yesterday. I can recall that in the first repair (about 2009) and the current repair, the issue seemed more prevalent when the weather was cold and rainy. Given that i just dropped the vehicle off yesterday, this incident is still not completely resolved at this point.
