| Description of the problem | While driving the cars steering tends to oversteer requiring constant wheel adjustment. The feel is similar to the wind blowing the car back and forth on the highway. It can be felt at lower speeds but is more prevalent at higher speeds. I took the car to the dealer on 3/26/13 and was told its the electronic steering and that it is operating as it should. They told me it,s different the hydraulic steering and it may take some time to get use to it. |
