Description of the problem | I was driving down the interstate and the steering locked up and the power steering warning light came on. I pulled onto the side of the interstate, put my hazards on and turned the car off. After calling for assistance i was told i could drive to the nearest auto repair. I turned the car on and driving was like pushing the car down the road and steering was dangerously difficult. I got to the repair shop turned off the car asked for assistance. When mechanic turned the car on light was off and power steering had been restored. He could not explain the glitch that caused the problem and suggested i contact my dealership. |
