lost power steering

I was driving at highway speed when I drove over a bump on the road nothing major. All kinds of warnings light up on the dashboard and I immediately noticed that I didn't have power steering. It was very scary loosing because it was extremely difficult to steer the car even when rolling. All these warnings were displayed on the dash. - Collision Mitigation Braking System Problem see your dealer - Road Departure Mitigation System Problem see your dealer - All Wheel Drive system problem. Only front wheel may be powered see your dealer. - Vehicle stability assist system problem. Reduced traction and handling. See your dealer - Hill start assist problem. Vehicle may roll upon brake release. See your dealer - Adaptive cruise control system problem. See your dealer - Electric Power Steering System Problem. Steering Assist reduced. see your dealer.

I pulled over and contacted road side assistance. By then I had restarted the engine and power steering was back. Since this happen on a Sunday the Acura road side assistant rep I spoke to suggested that I drive the car home and bring to a dealer on the next day Sunday.

I brought the car in to Paragon Acura in NYC. They examine the car and did confirmed that all the sensors and steering issue did occur. They said that everything sorted itself out, they didn't need to do anything because the issues had sorted themselves out and sent me home.
