Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Electronically assisted steering quit working while turning into our driveway and check engine or other warning light illuminated until the vehicle was finally stopped and the engine turned off and then back on. problem cleared after this incident. we've only had the vehicle for two weeks. my wife was driving during this incident and is the primary driver of the vehicle. i'm concerned with the hundreds of complaints i've seen about the same issue from others, that she may be in danger the next time this happens at higher speeds or on a corner. *nm
