Steering Failed Problems of Dodge Durango

While driving a brand new (170 miles) vehicle at 35 mph on a busy city street the electric power steering suddenly stopped working. A message "power steering unavailable" popped up and the car was very difficult to steer. I had the car towed to the dealer who said it may have been caused by a glitch in the computer. This is a very dangerous situation because without the electric boost it's very hard to steer the car. If this had happened in a turn or with a driver that wasn't strong there would likely be an accident. There also didn't seem to be a clear explanation of what caused the electric steering rack to fail in such a new vehicle.

Steering gear box needed to be changed. Took our vehicle in for a leak coming off what looked to be a coolant line. Next thing I know we got a call that our gear box needed replaced which leads me to believe that when we took it in for a regular service recently they said we had a leak in the drive line which we fixed. The dealership looked at determined the leak I saw was a completely different problem im just reaching out to you guys to maybe look into the steering gearbox issue only because a car with 80000 miles on it should not have such a major issue. I know things go wrong on vehicles just would like to make you aware of a situation that is ongoing I have read on your site others having the same issue. To add to it the car steering seemed normal no issues I am glad they caught cause if steering were to fail that could be a bad situation.
