“Driving to store. Weather was clear ~ 85 degrees f, road was clear, no rain, time approximately 10pm. While driving, I moved into the center lane (major road, three lanes both ways) for a turn to the store, during my turn to the left, I noticed that my power steering was not functioning and very hard to control/steer the vehicle. After struggling to straighten out my van (1998 Plymouth, Grand Voyager se) I noticed that my engine temperature had gone off scale / over heating. At this point I stopped the van in the middle of traffic.”
