Complaint Summary

STEERING

Owner Narrative

AFTER FILLING UP WITH FUEL ON SERVAL DIFFERENT OCCASIONS THE TRUCK WILL SHUT OFF WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS OR SERVICE LIGHTS. THIS CAUSES THE POWER STEERING AND EVERYTHING TO STOP. WHEN AT A STOP SIGN IT CAN BE STARTED SAFELY FROM PARK OR NEUTRAL BUT WHEN MOVING IT HAS TO BE PUT IN NEUTRAL TO RE START BECAUSE THE BRAKE SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK GOOD EITHER. IT HAS HAPPENED AT STOP SIGN AND STOP LIGHT AS WELL AS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT 55 MPH
