Owner's description
At approximately 20,000 miles the vehicle has issues with the steering wheel sticking, adversely affecting the ability to steer the vehicle safely. The issue appears after the vehicle has warmed up and is more noticeable while in the higher RPM range at approximately >40 MPH. The steering feels locked in place with the driver needing to fight the steering in order to control the vehicle. The amount of adjustment needed to steer the vehicle causes the steering to overcompensate and causes the steering to stick in the opposite direction which requires the driver to fight the steering the entire time the vehicle is operated. This issue presents a great safety concern to both the drivers/passengers in the vehicle and other drivers as the fatigue of manipulating the sticking/notched steering wheel can lead accident if the driver's inputs are not consistent with the steering defect. No warning light or or error codes are present.
