I would suggest stopping by your local advanced auto parts, or mechanic. have them hook up to the OBD2 and run a diagnostic on the vehicle. that will give you a head start on what the problem is.

SOURCE: w reg honda accord se cuts out completely whilst

This is a fuel system problem.

Check the fuel pump located in the fuel tank beneath the back seat, and the fuel filter located in the hood.

SOURCE: When turning into a parking spot, all of a sudden

If you are running your air conditioner then maybe that is faulty.they might be connected by the same belt.
Check fluid level in the power steering reservoir of course.COULD BE THE PUMP TOO.
unless your steering wheel locks while you are running
dont drive..that would be a strange issue,but even if your power steering pump goes on you and the wheel seems hard to turn...soon as you start to drive you will be able to steer fairly easily.

SOURCE: My 07 Chrysler 300 (Standard)

If I understand you, the steering wheel will not turn. Or is it that it is hard to turn? If it doesn't turn at all, I would not drive the car at all until it is repaired. If this should happen to you on a turn or when traffic stops in front of you, you could kill someone. It is not uncommon for a car to go into a slow speed mode, but what you describe is very dangerous.

My volvo steering locked up on me while driving can you tell me whats wrong

Hi Sherita

Obviously this could be very dangerous

Pull in to a Volvo dealer & get it checked

There could be a re call of your model if this is a known Volvo problem.
Volvo pride themselves on their Vehicle Safety.
Dealer shouldn't charge for a possible manufacturing problem

Car shutting off while driving

The battery light would come on because the engine has stopped running and the alternator is not charging the battery. The steering would get difficult to turn because the engine would not be turning the power steering pump. So those things would be expected.
It sounds like you have a relay that is failing, or you are loosing power from the key switch.

Power steering goes out while driving

There are sensors in the steering column. they are going bad and the whole steering column will need replaced more than likely. waiting for a recall from gm but this is a big safety issue that needs immediate attention. gm will reimburse you if you already have payed to have it fixed and they issue a recall.
