EPS control unit for power steering failure warranty work done last week
mileage - 50k km
Several times over the past few months the power steering would fail at ignition. Re-start solved it several times. Dealership said loose fuse. Turns out that was baloney. Re-start woud re-set unit.
Most recently, the re-start wouldn't fix it. They replaced the EPS but I am finding the steering MUCH heavier than before.
Has anyone else had this done and found the same thing? I have searched the forums for a few hours with no luck.
I know the steering is different as I have 2 bad shoulders. Before...not an issue with steering. Now...it hurts them - I could scratch the palm of my hand up and down the steering wheel and not move the car (at 80km) It hurts my shoulders to make minor adjustments in steering.
Anyway fyi....there is a TSB on the EPS. The light was NOT on when I went to the dealer. They agreed with the symptoms and replaced. Glad it is fixed but wish my steering was like it has been for the past two years...smooth and easy...not tight.
