Fuel pump failure while driving highway speed 70mph pulling a trailer. Engine light came on and engine went to limp mode for a few seconds then completely shut down without warning while still going at least 60. Lost power steering and power brakes. Service center confirmed the code for "low fuel rail pressure" and did the repair. I have retained the CP4 pump for analysis. I was very lucky to not crash my truck.

Lose power steering when making right hand turns as very low speeds. Issue has been periodic and on going.
While driving & trying to turn steering to the right , the steering just locks as if no power steering. This does not happen all the time but when it does it is very dangerous. The vehicle has 40.000 miles on it & I didnt expect to have a safety issue like this. I had taken it to a dealer & they tell me it will be very expensive to fix.
Losing power steering at low speed turns. Has almost caused several accidents.
Loose power steering assist briefly on low speed turns this has happened 3 or 4 times over 60k miles did not think much of it until I saw recall of 2014 models
