Loss of steering control when you lose power to the alternator. I was on the highway had to turn the car back on while driving.
Problem: harness. Every time I lift the steering wheel up, the engine turns off. I have tried to go to the Mitsubishi dealer and to Honda sierra where I bought the car (used) and they didn't want to take responsibility for it. I was like a tennis ball, so, I got tired of it. I even send a letter to Honda sierra to deal with the problem because I bought if defective. Unfortunately, I did not get a response. Repair cost more than 300 dollars. I don't have money yet, and im still hopeful that either of the two parties are willing to work with the problem.
