“I was driving at about 25-30 miles per hour and got a flat tire. I stopped the car and changed the tire, but once I started driving the caution alarm came on and started flashing that the electric power assisted steering malfunctioned. It became difficult to steer the car. I almost ran off the road into a drainage canal trying to make a turn.”
