1 Starter problem

Failure Date: 02/11/2015

Power steering went out while I was driving at a speed of 45 mph. I checked fuse and it was blown. I then but new fuse in and started car. The second I started the car the fuse blew again. The strang thing was that even tho the fues had blown the power steering continued to work until the car was shut off. Also my radio started changing stations by itself and airbag warning came across the dash then a couple days after that started I went to start the car and it wouldn't. Radio, outside lights and blinkers, interior lights, and dash lights would all still work, but it seemed that no power was getting to the starter nor the fule pump. At this time the car still won't start.

The recall of ignition was done but yet the ignitions still are failing,if u turn key it sticks on the on position and keeps starter goining. . Obviously the garages dont listen. . . Sooner than later this will turn into a accident.
