2 Power Steering Failed problem

Failure Date: 08/07/2019

At times, the entire electrical system fails while the vehicle is operating. Typically, it quickly reboots, but at times will not restart for several minutes. This has happened while making a hard turn at low speed, in which the power steering fails, wheel jerks, and entire electrical system and engine become disabled, and has also happened at highway speed while operating on cruise control, with the electrical system typically shutting down when the blinker is engaged to change lanes. When electrical shuts down, results in complete loss of all electrical systems including power steering, brake assist, engine power, lights, etc.
