The contact owns a 2005 Mitsubishi Montero. While driving 65 mph, the power steering suddenly failed. The gauges on the instrumental panel illuminated and the contact pulled over to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to a garage and a mechanic found a bolt that failed and caused the crankshaft pulley to detach. The manufacturer stated that the VIN was not included in a recall and could not offer any assistance. The current and failure mileages were 132,641.
