THE POWER STEERING ON MY 1995 CHEVY MALIBU WILL STOP WORKING AND DASH INDICATOR WILL SAY POWER STEERING. I HAVE TO SHUT THE CAR OFF AND RE-START CAR AND MOST OF THE TIME IT WILL START WORKING AGAIN. WHEN THE STEERING GOES OUT YOU CAN NOT TURN WHEEL, AND THERE COULD BE DEATHS CAUSED DUE TO NOT STEERING. CHEVY SHOULD RECALL THIS DEATH TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN. *TR
