Description of the problem | While driving to work on 7/23/20 at 45mh i lost power steering and stability control, warning light came on and (lost of power steering and stability malfunction) came on the dash. Had to pull to the side of the road and turned the truck off, waited 10min then triad to start it and it reset itself. Then on 7/25/20 it happened again only this time i was on the freeway doing 65mh with my wife and almost caused an accident going around an overpass. Because it's the only vehicle i have to go to work i decided to take it 7/28/20 and on the way home it did it again only this time it caused the wheels to skip, scared the sh%t out of me. I read there was a recall so i called the dealer but they say my truck dose not fall under the recall. This is a huge safety concern and after doing some research on the internet i'm not alone. This needs to be fixed and i shouldn't have to pay for this. |
