NHTSA Complaint #11339457 — 2015 RAM 1500

POWER STEERING HAS STARTED TO TURN HARD AT TIMES WHEN TURNING CORNERS. IT WILL TURN A LITTLE BIT FINE AND THEN BECOME EXTREMELY HARD TO TURN FOR ABOUT 6 INCHES ON THE STEERING WHEEL. IT WILL DO THIS 3 TIMES OR SO DEPENDING ON HOW SHARP YOU TRY TO TURN. IT HAPPEN A COUPLE TIMES LAST MONTH THEN WENT AWAY AND DROVE FINE. TODAY IT STARTED AGAIN. I WASN'T SURE I WAS GOING TO GET TURNED. IT HAS NOT GONE AWAY AS OF NOW. I JUST WENT OUT AND CHECKED. WE STATIONARY YOU CAN FEEL IT GRABBING A LITTLE. WHILE DRIVING IN THE CITY IT CAN BE VERY TOUGH TO TURN. I HAVEN'T TRIED TO MAKE ANY SHARP TURNS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS BUT AFTER EXITING THE INTERSTATE ON AN EXIT RAMP WITH A CURVE. AFTER TURNING THE WHEEL A FEW INCHES I CAN FEEL MORE TENSION THAN NORMAL. I BELIEVE THIS TO BE A FAULTY ELECTRONIC POWER STEERING ASSIST THAT I SEE THERE IS A RECALL ON BUT NOT ON MY TRUCK.
