“The electric power steering motor has been going off/on while driving. The latest incident was saturday december 21,2013. The electric power steering went out briefly while driving the freeway and going up a hill returning to my residence. If power steering assist was almost lost would require greater driver effort at low vehicle speeds,increasing my risk of crash. The manufactor or drive time where I bought the car never informed of the recall of this part.”
