While making a turn onto highway my electric power steering completely went out with cars turning next to me. It yanked the wheel out of my hand almost causing a crash. Then a window appears in ly car saying your steering has failed pull over safely . Little late for that. After getting car to dealer and waiting I searched and found electric steering recall from 2015 some 400k cars. The same year mine was built. Dealer says no but its the same exact problem.
