| Description of the problem | I started the car and the steering felt like it was incremental when you rotated the wheel. It was colder than normal out but not that cold. The temp was probably in the 40'sf. This has been an intermittent problem since then. I have had it at the subaru 4 times at two different dealerships and the last thing they told me was call subaru. I believe it is the control module for steering. |
