STEERING
MY DAUGHTER WAS ABOUT TO PULL OUT FROM A PARKING SPACE IN A SHOPPING CENTER WHEN SHE NOTICED THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD NOT TURN FOR HER. I LOOKED AT THE DASH AND A LIGHT WITH A STEERING-WHEEL AND EXPLANATION POINT WAS SHOWING. I TOLD HER TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, SHUT IT OFF AND THEN START IT UP AGAIN. SHE DID AND THE WARNING LIGHT WAS STILL WAS THERE AND NO POWER-STEERING. SHE TRIED THIS A COUPLE OF TIMES. IT WAS THEN I CALLED MY HUSBAND AND EXPLAINED THE SITUATION. HE CALLED THE DEALER WHO TOLD US TO BRING IT RIGHT IN. AFTER A COUPLE OF MINUTES WITH IT OFF AND SWITCHING PLACES, I STARTED IT AND IT WAS STILL NOT WORKING. I HAD TO DRIVE IT SEVERAL MILES WITH NO POWER TO THE STEERING-WHEEL. WOW! TALK ABOUT TAKING A STEP BACK IN TIME. MY DAUGHTER COULD SEE ME STRUGGLE TO TURN THE STEERING-WHEEL. WHEN I PULLED IN THE DRIVEWAY THE POWER CAME BACK ON OUT OF THE BLUE! THIS IS A VEHICLE I NOW NO LONGER TRUST FOR SAFETY ESPECIALLY AT HIGH SPEEDS. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
IN MARCH 2008, MY VEHICLE HAD WARNING LIGHTS TURN ON FOR BOTH THE SEAT BELT AND ABS SYSTEM. THE DEALER CLEARED THE CODE AND CHECKED THE SYSTEM FOR ERRORS. NO CODES RE-OCCURRED AND THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO ME. SUBSEQUENTLY IN DECEMBER 2008, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AGAIN. THE DEALER ADJUSTED SOME WIRING AND CLEARED THE LIGHT/CODE. NOW IN SEPTEMBER 2011, THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AGAIN. *TR
