Was Vehicle Towed: - Description of the Complaints: Power steering had been feeling very loose for a few days, then all of a sudden the power steering completely failed while i was driving. the steering wheel locked up and the display "noted power steering". i almost crashed into another vehicle when the steering completely locked up. i initially looked to see if i needed power steering fluid, which i could not find. i then looked on the internet trying to find out where to put the power steering fluid finding out that the vehicle has a hydraulic power steering system and does not take power steering fluid. upon my research into where to put the power steering fluid i saw an article indicating that there is an investigation into a recall in this regards. at that time i took the vehicle to the dealer because it is still under manufacturer warranty. the dealer still has the vehicle and is replacing the entire steering column. *tr
