puissance réduite de la servodirection
From its association with engine stalled and lack of brAKEs (probably caused by lack of vacuum in the brake servo system), this suggests it refers to the fact that if the engine is not running the power-steering system will become ineffective, requiring the driver to pull much harder to tuen the steering wheel.
4 hrs
direction lourde
N'étant plus assistée, la direction s'alourdit et le véhicule devient très dificile à manœuvrer aussi bien pour le braquage que pour le freinage.

conduite limitée
Limited steering is that the steering can be maneuvered to a limited extent.
