Electric Power Steering
If your vehicle has electric power steering it does not have power steering fluid. Regular maintenance is not required.
If power steering assist is lost due to a system malfunction, the vehicle can be steered, but may require increased effort.
If the steering wheel is turned in either direction several times until it stops, or it is held until it is stopped for an extended time, power steering assist should return shortly after a few normal steering movements.
See specific vehicle steering messages under Vehicle Messages.
See your dealer if there is a problem.
