Last night my dashboard lost electricity for about 2 seconds and my engine stalled. I lost power steering control. After 2 seconds, electrical components of the dashboard returned to normal, as did the power steering and engine, and everything was fine.

I was driving on 35-38 MPH in a 35mph zone. The road was curving in the form of a c and my tires started to skid. Once I applied brakes and I couldn't feel anything braking and once again applied, the car turned 90 degree, straightened out on the road but not completely meaning the car was still going forward in the direction on the road but a 30 degree angle.

I was driving my car when suddenly the steering wheel became very heavy and it was almost impossible to turn it to any direction. The hydraulic system stopped working without any warning. I was traveling at very slow speed (20 miles/h) on a very calm street.

The car drifts to the left and to the right after a few seconds. It has been aligned with all 4 tires balanced and rotated twice but the car will drift within a few seconds. The dealership wants to blame road crown for this and nothing with the steering of the car.

This 2016 honda accord touring of mine makes screeching noise at 20 MPH or lower when I turn left. I took it to brookdale honda at brooklyn center mn today and they said it is not nothing but coming from one of the seats. This car gave me problems from bad tires to wheels to steering wheel and daylight running lights now.

The car vibration increases whenever the car is in drive and idling at a stop light, stop sign, parking lot, etc. During cold weather temperatures the vibration is excessive and can make a rattling noise come from the engine. This has been happening for a few months now continuously.

When I put the car in reverse and start backing up, the steering wheel locks up and it's like the car kills and turns on again while still in motion. The day before this happened my window was going up and down on its own and my car didn't want to lock and unlock with the remote.
