Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: I have a 2005 malibu with 50000 miles on it and the power steering randomly shuts off. the car is equipped with electronic power steering and sometimes the steering is real tight and sometimes its really loose. it becomes very dangerous when this happens and the chevy dealership i brought it to doesn't know what is wrong. i know what is wrong - my steering doesn't work 100% of the time. i have a safe driving record and drive resposibly and do not beat on my cars. i know it is not my driving stlye, rather it is a flaw in design and construction of the power steering.
