1 Electric Power Assist Steering System problem of the 2005 Mini Cooper S Convertible

Failure Date: 10/10/2011

My daughter experienced complete power steering failure while she was driving her Mini cooper, nearly causing a collision with an oncoming vehicle. I drove the car afterward and could not believe how hard it was to steer the car (compared to a manual steering vehicle). I called Mini at their toll free number and was told that they had no recall notice from the NHTSA, therefore they had no obligation to fix this incredible defect. I hope it doesn't take a body count for the NHTSA to recall the 223,000 Mini's effected by this extremely dangerous defect.
