While driving on the freeway 65+ mph the eps alert came on and the steering wheel was extremely hard to turn. Luckily I was able to get the car home safely. I see many many complaints for the same issue, this is a huge safety issue and very dangerous. My car has just over 90k miles.
My car was driving nice, I stopped at the gas station and after I finish I turned it on and power steering light goes on, I didnt know whats the problem so I tried to move my car and I found that the steering was hard to turn left or right it feels worth than a car with no power steering thanks god the high way was not busy because its hard to control it I drove it slowly to gunn Acura it was a mile from where I am, and they said it power steering module (motor) and it cost me $2000. My car has 70 000 mile, I check around the net and I found most to all people have this problem happens on 68 000 mile to 71 000 mile.
