| Description of the problem | Electronic power assisted steering failure-epas is cutting out most of the time causing over steer and under steer conditions due to the amount of force needed to correct on left and right turns. Steering will get difficult to control on turns just like the non power steering vehicles of old. This occurs at startup and with vehicle in motion and ends with park and vehicle shut off. Can supply video footage if requested. |
