Driving East on allen street in springfield Massachusetts steering control locked up resulting in a crash with a gas station pump police crash report id 15-3725-ac car was totalled out when it caught fire no noise was heard seconds before crash. I have noticed that there was a recall on the replacement parts but wonder if the oem parts could fail resulting in crash.
