 Description of the problemRecently the electric power steering system indicator started to turn on while driving in the street, which stayed on (including in highway) until the engine was turned off. This happened twice without noticeable problems for the steering wheel. Last week, the indicator turned on again along with a message "check the power steering system" while driving in the local way, and at the same time the steering wheel was stiff and unable to make any turn. To get rid of this problem, i had to turn off and on the engine repeatedly. This problem happened twice. I checked the fuse for eps (electronic power steering), which looked fine. I called several auto service shops and they said this problem is weird and they were unable to help. Although the car is still drivable, i'm very worried about its safety in driving, especially in high speeds. I bought this car as an used one from a dealer 3 years ago. All warranties have expired. Currently there are no open safety recalls.
