Two warning messages came on stating that the power steering needed to be serviced , the stabilitrack needed to be serviced and the ABS warning light came on. The car became difficult to steer. I had my son and a neighbor's child in the car with me. It was not a safe condition.”

NHTSA complaint #11048377, filed 2017-11, 85,000 miles“Driving on the highway and dash notification popped up that I needed to service my power steering, service my stabiltrac, service ABS. I lost power (electric) steering and barely able to exit and park safely. I'm a small woman with not much strength and I could hardly turn my wheel with every bit of muscle. This is not safe! I could've been seriously injured or died along with other drivers/vehicles! This needs to be a complete recall!!!!”
