My power steering light comes on and I am not able to turn my steering wheel. This has happened several times in the last week while my car was stationary. Also while I was driving tonight the car made a sound warning and right after that my power steering locked up while my car was in motion driving on a city street. I had to put my car in neutral turn my ignition off and then back on to get the steering back in my control. I believe this has something to do with the power steering. My steering wheel shakes ever since I first noticed this issue and the steering on this vehicle sometimes just all of a sudden pulls off to the left or to the right for no reason. My tires have the proper inflation and are only 3 months old. I drive down a mountain with lots of curves in the road to get to and from work if the steering decides to lock up while I am driving on a curve this could cause a very bad and possibly fatal accident. This car does not have a place to add power steering fluid the manual states to bring the vehicle to the dealership if this keeps occurring.
