I was coming home and heard a chime, then the power steering light came on and I lost control of the steering. Could not turn the wheel, I turned off the car and restarted it, worked for a few minutes, long enough so I could park it. I had the car towed to the dealership the next day, they ran diagnostics and repaired it under warranty. I was thankful for that, but I am concerned about other car owners that do not know about the problem and may be driving on the freeway at a much faster speed when the power steering shuts down. There should be a total recall on this defect!.

I was driving down a busy street when my car starting beeping(warning chime) and the power steering light came on. I went to pull my car over to the next side street and found it very difficult to do so. I found I could turn my car off and wait 30 sec and the steering would come back, but within 3 min. I would lose it again and I would have to keep repeating the process. This has happened multiple times. The car is now at the dealer for repair. The steering is unsafe in this car.
