I was driving on rt41 near chicago in the middle lane at 65mph and tried to change the lane to get into left lane from middle lane, right then when I turned the steering slight left to change lane, it felt like the steering of my car got locked. My car was inches away from colliding into concrete barricade, I had to wrestle with the steering to avoid that crash and pulled the car on the shoulder. I might have got killed because of this. This is really a very serious issue. Dealership informed that the power steering pump failed. My car is at dealership since then and today is 2/1/14, I was informed that the pump is on back order until first week of March, so my car will sit at the dealership for almost two months.
