POWER STEERING MALFUNCTION: UPON STARTING THE VEHICLE (IN THE PARKING LOT OF MY JOB, TO GO HOME) THE POWER STEERING MALFUNCTION LIGHT LIT UP IN THE DASHBOARD. I CHECKED THE POWER STEERING FLUID LEVEL TO SEE IF IT WAS LOW - IT WAS NOT. I CHECKED THE FUSES THAT MIGHT BE RELATED TO THE POWER STEERING - ALL FUSES SEEMED OKAY. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND SAW THAT PREVIOUS YEARS OF THE MAZDA5 HAD A RECALL IN PLACE WITH REGARD TO THE POWER STEERING. I AM CONCERNED MY VEHICLE MAY HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. I WILL BE CONTACTING A MAZDA DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE VEHICLE LOOKED AT TO GET MORE INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THIS ISSUE.
