STARTED OFF IN MID APRIL WITH THE DASHBOARD ALERT BEEPS, AND WARNING DISPLAY THAT THE POWER STEER IS NOT SERVICEABLE, FOLLOWED BY A 2ND ALERT THE ESC IS OFF. ALONG WITH THE ALERTS. I LOST ALL POWER STEERING. WHEN THE CAR IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED, THE ERROR WAS CLEARED AND NORMAL STEERING CONTROL RESUMED.AND FROM MID APRIL 2014 UNTIL EARLY JUNE, THIS ERROR WAS VERY RANDOM AN OCCURRED ONLY A FEW TIME (LESS THAN 10) BUT SINCE EARLY JUNE, IT HAPPENS ALMOST CONSTANT. I NO SOONER STOP, TURN OFF THE CAR, THEN RESTART THE CAR WHICH SOMETIMES CLEARS THE ERROR AND SOMETIMES DOESN'T. I WAS JUST TOLD MINUTES AGO THAT MY CAR'S VIN WAS NOT ON THE RECALL LIST, YET THE MODEL AND YEAR IS! ALONG WITH MILLIONS OF OTHERS... I CAN'T DRIVE IT AS IS, AND CAN'T AFFORD TO GET IT FIXED...
