Sticky steering most notable at highway speeds after 20-30 minutes of run time. Requires more force than necessary to make corrections to stay in lane causing over steering. Same occurs on long left hand turns where steering sticks then breaks free. In addition, steering wheel makes clicking/springy sound when turning wheel. VIN number not included in NHTSA Campaign Number 24V744000 but experience symptoms of documented manufacturing defects

Filed Oct 6, 2025GA
While in cruise mode, car has several times suddenly and rapidly braked for a semi truck that did not exist. Most of the instances the road ahead was completely clear. On one occasion this nearly caused the vehicle behind me to ram me.

The steering on the vehicle exhibits unusual resistance when on center above 40mph - sort of a 'sticking' feeling. To properly correct the vehicles lane position at Hwy speeds, driver needs both hands. To move the steering in these situations requires significantly more torque than normal, and when you have applied enough torque, the steering will suddenly move, making it easy to overcorrect.

Reading this record
No unusual pattern of severe incidents in the complaint record.
Complaint counts track how many cars were sold and how long they have been on the road as much as they track quality. A common model from 2013 has had a decade to accumulate reports; a rare one from last year has not. The signal worth weighing is in the severity columns, in whether the same component keeps appearing, and in whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
Most recent recall on file: none. Source: NHTSA Office of Defects Investigation.
