While passing another car, accelerating around a curve, or taking off from a stop. The electronic power steering shuts down leaving you fighting a steering wheel that almost feels locked. I was told that there was a bulletin out on the coil pack. That it is spiking a voltage above 16 volts and as a safety feature it shuts down the electronic steering to protect it. It might protect the steering from the electric surge, but it has almost caused a wreck on a couple of occasions. Luckily I was able to fight the dead steering wheel where if I was a smaller male/ female there would be a chance that I couldn't.
