Owner's description

Good day, while driving home from city of Philadelphia on May 1st 2023 at 8 pm on rout 95 north bound for 1&1/2 hours of stop and go at 10mph or less, once we passed the obstruction of traffic (placement of new over head sign), regaining speed limit the steering was very difficult stiff like having very little power steering. I am 59 and remember vehicles w/o power steering. Once off the highway on suburban streets the steering seemed to be pulling me off the road towards driver side and a warning would appear that I was departing lane when I reacted to pull towards middle of lane seemed like it was way to much and quickly finding my self in the next lane over, (very scary) thank god no body was in that lane. Happy to be home arms very tired. The next day I read over the owners manual for I do not drive the car often and followed the procedure to shut off driver assist. While driving after disabling driver assist the unit came back on by it's self with in ten minutes and would randomly tell me to brake. I did google this and apparently I am not the only one. Currently have an appointment with the dealership that I purchased the vehicle from.
