What owners wrote
It had been raining in a parking lot of a department store, vehicle proceeded out of parking lot. Driver's foot slipped off brake pedal, and ran head-on to a light pole. Upon impact, driver's side airbag didn't deploy. Had vehicle towed to a service station. Due to front damage vehicle has been totaled.
White smoke coming from steering column. It does not smell electrical, nor is the smoking consistent first occurrence tonight. Conditions were, 40 MPH, parking lights on, econ/vent set at 68 and fan on auto with cruise control not engaged. Smoke came from outlets where turn signals, tilt steering adjustment and retractable steering column insets. I pulled over, turned off the car, opened the hood and saw no smoke from engine compartment and smelled no other "hot" instances.
