“The speed sensor in the power steering system causes the steering to change from very stiff (I.e., difficult to turn the steering wheel) to very loose (I.e., very easy to turn the steering wheel). This problem also caused the driver to nearly loose contol of the vehicle while driving on the interstate.”
