 Description of the problemI was driving at 30 mph and wanted to turn left when the steering wheel got stiff , the notice on the dash board said: "check the power steering system"and i could not control the wheel. I panicked and tried hard to turn the wheel. I was able to turn left with a lot of difficulty and i stopped the car. I was truly terrified by this incident and had the car towed to the dealer. The mechanic told me that they found a code 71-01 motor angle sensor and he performed an update. He said that now it would be fine. I picked up my car the next day and parked it at home. On sunday, july 21, i was driving to the store and the same exact problem occurred again. One more time i had it towed to the dealer. Now, they say that the electronic connection was faulty. I am not sure if that will resolve the issue permanently. I am terrified to drive this car. One can be killed easily. This is a serious security issue.
