Whilst on a roundabout as I was turning on it and moving the steering wheel from left to right it just stopped working.

The steering felt really light and would not turn. I was lucky as there was no other traffic and I was able stop in a safe place.

The steering has since been OK but I am worried it will happen again.

This may or may not be related but there has been a slight problem with the front wheel which has been spinning a bit when I have been moving from stationary and the brake on the wheel is a bit dodge.
