1 Lose Power Steering problem

Failure Date: 10/02/2019

After replacing my car battery on 2010 vw cc, the red steering wheel icon appeared on the dash followed by 3 chimes to make known of problem. The steering wheel lost all power steering. Prior to occurance there was never any whining noise, abnormal shaking that could point to a problem with the steering rack. After researching I found others with the same issue and no easy fix but to tow to the shop and get a ridiculous quote on parts and labor for the replacement of the steering rack.

2 Lose Power Steering problem

Failure Date: 09/07/2019

The second time in one week I lost power steering while driving on a city street. Loss of power steering due to clock spring malfunction? if that occurs while driving on a highway it very dangerous to me and other motorists. I purchase this vehicle 9 months ago.
