Hi all, i feel my 2.0 forte's Electric steering very tight and heavy, during speed of 90km/h, when you turn a corner, the steering is so hard to turn and maintain the turn, need to hold it hard, it tend to go to center, which i feel dangerous.....i drove City & CRV which are also Electric Steering, they are very nice ...to drive, not same at all with my forte....i really headache about this....is it only my case like this? is my steering motor has problem? or other also suffer the same?

Hmm, which car you all drove previously?

How come you find the steering heavy?

During the car is stopped can you easily turn the steering wheel with 2 fingers? or 1 hand?

Steering wheel is supposed to get heavier with higher speed. It's very dangerous for the steering to be light during high speed.

On another note, looked at my car just now, the front driver and passenger seat window button all got light. Only rear is without lights biggrin.gif

yes, the car at low speed and stopped, the steering is very light and easy to turn....but crusing at high speed, it become too heavy, not same like those other car, CRV, City, Altis etc...

you will find it very differently heavy....i dont know why...but for my case, i hate this ....and need to use lot of energy to maintain the steering turn duing cornering... shakehead.gif
