WAS DRIVING ON A SIDE STREET (SPEED LIMIT 35) WHEN SUDDENLY NEITHER THE BRAKES NOR STEERING WORKED. IT WAS ALMOST LIKE I WAS HYDROPLANING, BUT THE ROADS WERE NOT WET AND IT WASN'T RACING. I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE CAR. FINALLY THE STEERING REENGAGED AND I WAS ABLE TO SWERVE THE CAR SO I DIDN'T HIT ANOTHER CAR. FORTUNATELY I WAS ON A SIDE ROAD AND NOT GOING VERY FAST.
RODENTS ATE THROUGH THE ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING WIRES. MY SON WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WHEN POWER STEERING LOSS OCCURRED. HE COULD HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND OR KILLED. AMERICAN HONDA WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS AND SOMEONE NEEDS TO ADDRESS THIS SAFETY ISSUE. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN LOSS OF POWER STEERING!!
ELECTRIC STEERING LOCKED WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN. AS I WAS TURNING THE WHEEL SEEMED TO LOCK AND THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN IT WENT THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION I WAS TURNING AND I ALMOST SKIDDED OFF THE ROAD. MOST OF THE TIME ESPECIALLY WHEN I'M GETTING ON THE FREEWAY, IT FEELS LIKE I HAVE A LITTLE CONTROL OVER THE STEERING AND IT FEELS LOOSE. THE STEERING ALSO GIVES ME PROBLEMS WHEN I PULL INTO A PARKING SPACE I CAN'T ESTIMATE HOW MUCH I HAVE TO TURN THE WHEEL.
MY REAR TIRE WENT FLAT. THE TIRE IS CRACKED AND AIR IS ESCAPING.NEW CAR BOUGHT ONLY TWO MONTHS TIRES SHOULD NOT BE CRACKING.
