Steering Failed Problems of Acura TSX

While driving on local road approaching an intersection that leads to an onramp in oakland CA, the steering became extremely rigid, it was almost impossible to control the car by turning the steering wheel. A warning light flashed rapidly on the display panel "steering system failure". Luckily I was driving at 5 to 10 mph and able to pull over. After about 30 seconds, the warning light stopped and the car's steering then performed normally. The problem occurred again within minutes and driving less than 2 miles. The mileage on the car is 66,100, the car auto oil change / b1 reminder was showing 5% remaining for the b1 service. I contacted Acura they would not accept responsibility for repairing the car even though this seems like a manufacture's problem,.

Steering system fails intermittently. Eps warning light comes on and the car becomes uncontrollable in the highway and very hard to maneuver in the parking lot. This is extremely scary situation. I was glad I was able to exit the freeway and stop the car at a safe location. Electronic power steering module (eps) is failing.

The electronic steering module failed at 45000 miles. It is a very expensive fix and Acura is not willing to help. It appears to be a common problem because vehicles seem to be computers more than anything these days.
