Power Steering not Engaging/Shutting off While Driving
A little info. This all started last week. I noticed that a couple times when I'd drive somewhere and turn the car off, I'd come back to turn the car back on and the power steering didn't engage. After letting it sit or idle long enough it would finally engage.
Then yesterday I noticed that sparatically while I was driving the dash and radio would flicker and go out. On top of that the power steering would engage and disengage sporadically. The cars engine sounds and drives fine outside of 2 times I caught it going straight limp for a split second. It's actually kind of scary to have all this happen while on the highway.
I've heard there was a power steering recall for RHD vehicles. No idea if this is related. I'm assuming not.
Anyone have any ideas? It sounds like an electrical issue. But those are my least favorite. Haha
In the image below I am driving 30 mph. And things do not look as they should....
