Driving along and the power steering goes out. Has no common time or conditions as to when. Has happened on the highway, driveway and city streets. Steering is extremely difficult to turn. I have to stop, put it in park and restart. This makes it return to normal. Sometimes for a day or a couple of hours, it varies. Dealer has tried to download a fix but it's no better. Started dec 9 and keeps doing so.

Returning to work after lunch break. Power steering fails at about 45 mph. 3rd time that this has happened. Took it to dealer the first time and was told problem was solved. Turning truck off and on again temporarily resolves the problem. Took to dealer again today and was told they need to order more parts. Have found many other instances of this truck having similar issues online.

The power steer in failed as i was driving about 25mph. I drove the car to the dealership. The power steering briefly worked each time the ignition was activated, then would fail minutes later. Have been without the vehicle since that day with conflicting explanations . Either the dealer received a bad replacement part or the entire steering column requires replacing. This is a very dangerous defect which should be…
