the steering system locks up and loses power assist, and the brakes and traction control sys also malfunction, and several failure lights all come on, as I was making a left turn in front of a police car the steering locked up and I almost hit the police car, the vehicle isn't driveable, the policeman advised me not to drive the car, he verified the steering didn't work, when the problem occurs the steering gets extremely hard and at the same time lights and bells start ringing in the car and it's very scary because between the steering and brakes not working the bells and lights are very distracting
