While driving down the road powering steering locked, vehicle would throw consumer forward and backward in the seat. Coming to a stop light and press the brakes it was like the car lunged forward. Just got the vehicle back from the shop yesterday and it started doing the same thing. Power steering was locking but was not actually locked. Will stop and restart the vehiclwas and its like having foot on the gas pedal and brake pedal at the same time.
