Typical steering symptoms owners report

  • Steering suddenly becomes unavailable while driving or shortly after starting, accompanied by warning lights for power steering, blind-spot monitoring, and lane assist.
  • In some cases the steering wheel locks up entirely and will not turn, in one instance causing the front wheels to be pushed outward and resulting in a collision.
  • Several owners report the vehicle would not respond to steering input even after cycling the engine off and on multiple times, sometimes requiring a tow to the dealership.
  • One owner reported a diagnostic code for loss of communication with the power steering module, which was addressed with a software flash on the electronic power steering system.
  • Multiple owners tied their steering symptoms to an open recall (Campaign 24V132000) and reported long waits, months in some cases, for replacement parts before the repair could be completed.
