| When taking a corner the car appeared to over steer. at first i thought it was me so i went to turn the wheel to correct it and it felt sluggish for lack of a better word. almost instantly after that a warning came up on the dash that indicated something like service power steering, please drive safely. the warning occurred two more times in a matter of a couple miles but i did not really notice any steering issues those times. *tr | |||
