As I was driving down a straight road, the steering wheel locked and I got a message on the dashboad. It said that the electrical power steering system may not be working. I turned off the car. I turned it back on and continued to drive. However, within 1 min, the wheel locked again. Thank god I hadnt gotten on the freeway. There could've been serious consequences as this is an extremely dangerous situation while driving. I slowly brought it back home as I had to continuously turn off and on the car to unlock wheel for 1 min. To make some turns. This should not have happened to this car that I bought less than 10 years old. I had just taken it in a couple of months ago for an oil check and inspection.

On my way to work last night while driving in the highway, my steering wheel locked, making it impossible for me to turn. Then lights starting flashing on the dashboard saying check power steering system. I was afraid for my life as this is dangerous. I did safely make it to work. At this time I am unable to find a recall for this problem which is odd because this is definitely not a consumer's fault. It's a system failure.

Takata recall I was driving home with my little brother from 4th of july activities when the power steering eps system gave out. The steering wheel locked up making it impossible to turn. Besides my car only having 61,000 miles, this could have ended very bad as I was on a very busy road. My car warranty was up to 60k, I have seen multiple people having the same issue right around the same mileage.yet for some reason this is not a recall. People are at risk and it's only a matter of time before something tragic happens. This does not make you trust in a brand you thought puts the customer and brand name first.
