Power steering turns off and on randomly, steering trouble light comes on within a few seconds. When this happens, steering becomes very difficult. If it happens while turning, steering wheel can jerk out of your hands. Happens much more often when outside temperature is hot. Occurs randomly, while moving or not.
While driving down a steep hill, the power steering warning light came on and the steering became very heavy an pulled to one side. The warning ligth was on for under 5 seconds and later disappeared and steering became normal again. This problem would again happen intermittently over the course of a week. We took the car to the Honda dealer to check on the problem. They said the battery was low and replace the battery. The problem returned again and the dealer could not offer a solution.
