Apparently my truck already had the steering recall preformed, but i'm having the same issue still. The power steering stopped twice while driving, almost causing us to hit another vehicle. The lights will also dim almost to off while turning the steering wheel while stationary, also power steering will quick momentarily while doing this also. What do you suggest i do?

At low speeds of 15mph or less, when brakes are applied, the vehicles brake assist stops working and the electric to the car flashes off. If speeds are low enough and you apply brakes while turning right at a light or stop sign, the vehicle will shutoff and steering wheel locks. This is a huge safety issue and poor design.
