Description of the problem | It was 70 degrees outside and raining. I was leaving a store, backed out of my parking spot and drove to the end of the first lane, i stopped, then as i started to move forward and turn right, my power steering did not work anymore. I was very hard to turn and made growling noise. I couldn't make the right turn. I stopped quickly, backed up to get out of lane, and steering became very loose in reverse. I stopped, tried forward again, and it did it again, very tight steering, could not turn all the way to make the turn and growling. I backed up and parked and turned off vehicle, then started again, then it worked fine for the trip home. |
