Description of the problem | I went to start my car and found my battery was low. I got the car jump started and when i put it in gear the power steering was no longer working. I took it to the dealer and was told it needed to replace the steering gear assembly. This is on a car that is less than 4 years old and has less than 26,000 miles. I am told the warranty is 3 years or 36,000 miles whichever comes first. Based on my research it looks like others have had similar issues with the steering gear assembly. I drove the vehicle on the highway the night before and there was no hint of any problems. |
