Crash risk

The electric power steering can briefly lose its assist, mostly when turning at low speed. If the assist returns after dropping out, the driver may briefly lose control of the steering wheel, which raises the risk of a crash.

Fix: A dealer will update the electric power steering module software at no cost to you.
