So I called her, stepped in and got myself a beer. Started the car after 15 minutes and the error had gone away.
The dealer couldn't figure it out the last time I took it in and he said "I know its not what you want to hear after spending 40k on a new car, but unfortunately we are unable to find the cause".
This is ridiculous. And its getting really annoying now.
I am trying to remember if there was a pattern. The one thing that was common in all three occurrences was that I did not lock the car. I simply walked away, came back after 5 to 10 minutes, and tried to start the car. Maybe I'll experiment this weekend, and see if I can force the "Power Steering Error" to appear again.

This has happened over 10 times now. No pattern. Happened after I locked the car. Love the car when it works. Hate the company's attitude. Hate the dealer's attitude. There is nothing I can do about it. I could take it to the dealer's shop and tell them to keep the car till they've fixed the issue - I don't think it'll help.
