    Steering

    Power steering failure. Power steering locks up intermittently, more so when making a left turn. Service power steering message comes up in dash and then disappears after a couple seconds. This incident happened both when vehicle was in motion making a left turn in an intersection almost causing a collision and also when parked and attempting to steer left attempting to duplicate the problem.
