Description of the problem | While driving 7/15/16 the electric steering warning indicator light went on, and the steering wheel became impossible to turn or steer until it finally ceased to turn (total time for complete loss of steering capability was less than 1 min.). I was driving on a 4-lane city street traveling at about 45mph. I turned the vehicle off for about 3 mins. And then restarted it. The indicator light was off and the steering worked fine. I immediately drove to a honda dealership who told me the car is probably fine as it had a software update installed 9 mos. Ago and if it happens again i should bring the car in for replacing the steering box. I requested a note be made in my car repair history. They did not provide me with any paperwork. |
