“When driving in heavy rain and standing water the power steering will go out. Water somehow gets the belts wet, which have a loud screeching sound, with that the power steering will fail which has almost caused me to wreck the vehicle several times. This problem is ongoing and has happened since I came into possession of the vehicle.”
NHTSA complaint #11064452, filed 2018-01, 230,000 miles“After filling my gandmothers gas tank on her 2007 Town And Country we pulled onto the street and the whole car stalled out and I lost control of my steering wheel and breaks. If it hadn't been for quick reaction time on my part. We would have been in a collision. It's never had a problem before. In order to gain control back I had to throw the van in park and then it restarted and drove with no problem home.”

NHTSA complaint #11166690, filed 2019-01, 300 miles“Pretty much ever since I've had the car, I will occasionally be driving and bump the key with my knee, turning the van off altogether. The power steering stops working with the engine off, so I have to try to turn on my hazard lights and carefully navigate to the side of the road to put the van in park again so that I can restart it (I can't restart it while I'm still moving). I am very, very careful to try to never even touch the key with my knee so that this doesn't happen, but it still does occasionally.”
NHTSA complaint #10604461, filed 2014-06, 40,000 miles“While the vehicle is in motion and I drive slowly or fast through a large puddle of water the water splashes up and I loose power steering. The steering becomes difficult to manage once out of the water and about 30 seconds later the power steering returns. No other time do I loose power steering. Daily the van makes loud noises like a whistling/purring or a ting once starting the car in the morning which a different customer attributed to the power steering possibly. Also the whining or whistling noise does increas with excelleration. It is weird. …”
