What owners wrote
When I drive my car it jerks when I drive a certain MPH.. I was on the free way and it felt like I wasn't going to be able to stop or didn't no if my car would stop... My power steering is not working when I turn a corner it makes a grinding noise and when I found out what the problem which was my power steering pump I got it fixed an now the power steering leaks out an still makes the noise.. I feel really unsafe in my car an am afraid to drive with my son in it.
Wrench light comes on. And vehicle loses all power. Have to pull to side of road and shut engine off and restart it.
