I WAS TURNING IN TO TRAFFIC AND THE STEERING QUIT WORKING MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. I LOOKED ON THE COMPUTER AND FOUND THAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM, ONE RECOMMENDED TURN THE VEHICLE OFF AND RESTART IT, I TRIED THAT AND IT WORK. I FEEL LIKE THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE A RECALL BECAUSE IT COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND OR SERIOUS INJURIES OR DEATH TO A DRIVER OR OTHER PEOPLE. IN THE 47 YEARS I'VE BEEN DRIVING I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED ANYTHING LIKE THIS.
