EPS- Electric Power Steering failed while driving causing hazardous and dangerous conditions. While unable to steer the vehicle it crossed the median into oncoming traffic barely avoiding an accident and endangering my life and life of other drivers and passengers. Unlike on hydraulic systems where in case of defective pump it is still possible to steer the car, this electric steering it was impossible to control even to load the vehicle on the tow truck. Terrible technology or design, most importantly it is NOT SAFE !
