I've experienced 2 power steering failures in the last 6 months. First, the eps failed (which was recalled for many of the same model--but not mine) which I replaced. Now, power steering failed again, this time the steering gear per the dealership. This is a safety hazard! with the most recent failure, if your hands are not grasping the steering wheel firmly, the car will veer sharply to either the right or left. And steering this beast with no power steering is nearly impossible. Many drivers would not be able to overpower the dead electric steering system. The first warning came as loud screeching sounds from the steering at low speed. It felt as though the power steering motor was intermittent, and "jolting" the steering wheel. The screeching stopped at speed, but the jittering/jolting of the electric system continued. This is a serious malfunction, especially with so few miles on the vehicle.
