| 2007 | STEERING | NOTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY, JUST DRIVING, AND A WARNING 'BEEP, BEEP, BEEP,' THE 'POWER STEERING' WARNING COMES ON IN THE DASH WHERE THE TEMPERATURE AND MILEAGE ARE, AND THE POWER STEERING IS NOT WORKING. THE WHEEL IS VERY HARD TO TURN AND CONTROL IS LOST IF ALREADY IN A TURN. MY SON HAD TO HELP ME STEER. SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL, TURN THE CAR OFF AND RESTART IT, AND THEN THE POWER STEERING WILL COME BACK ON, BUT THE INTERVAL OF OPERATION GETS SHORTER AND SHORTER. NOT DRIVING CAR NOW. TOO DANGEROUS, CANNOT STEER. *TR |
