Consumer Description

2014 AUDI A5 WITH APPROX 62K MILES. THE STEERING SYSTEM HAS BEGUN TO OFFER INCONSISTENT RESISTANCE TO DRIVER INPUT, WHICH IMPACTS DRIVER'S ABILITY TO JUDGE THE AMOUNT OF FORCE NEEDED TO TURN THE WHEEL TO THE DESIRED POSITION. WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL FROM CENTER TO EITHER STOP, THERE ARE SEVERAL SECTORS WHERE IT FEELS LIKE THE ASSIST IS WORKING, AND SEVERAL WHERE THE STEERING GETS HEAVY AND HARD TO TURN. THE ISSUE OCCURS AT VARIOUS SPEEDS AND WHILE STOPPED. IT SEEMS SIMILAR TO ISSUES REPORTED WITH 2013 A4 AND A5 MODELS.
