What owners wrote
Riding down the road and the wheel instantly locked up on me stating in the message center of the car "power steering assist fault" service power steering" service power steering now" and service advancetrac" caused a accident and now my car cause so much money to fix. I lost control because the wheel stop turning.
Approximately 3 months ago I got into my car to go to work. I drove the vehicle on the city side streets to get to the highway that I travel to work. The trouble light indicator came on indicating poor steering and the vehicle did seem to be steering incorrectly. I returned home and drove my wife's vehicle to work. Next day I went out to check to see if there was a problem. I started up my vehicle and tried to drive the vehicle out of my parking place. The power steering won't work at all.
