 Description of the problemMy car has an uneven steering effort. The steering is tighter and more difficult to steer when driving, while turning right. The problem is getting worse in the two years i've owned this car. A service bulletin was released 7/24/18, number: 04-21-18, showing several models of subaru's have this steering issue. I have attached the bulletin below for your review. The bulletin says, "if a crack is confirmed, the eps steering gear box assembly must be replaced." the word "must" tells me it is an important safety issue. Shortly after purchasing this car, i returned it to the subaru dealership and was told there was nothing wrong with the steering.
