| Description of the problem | I was driving this morning, and my 2017 hyundai was maneuvering as if there were too much power steering fluid. With every lane change, it was as if i was going to crash. About 4 hours later, i went to grab my son and same thing. Car moving very easily. Turning could be done with my pinky. As i was turning into my street, all of a sudden it's as if something was holding my car back. The power steering went out. Thank god i was right by the house. Red steering wheel and exclaimation point notification appeared on my dashboard. |
