Consumer Description

The EPS(Electronic Power Steering) get a little bit hard at slow speed and sometimes you need to use more hand power to steer the vehicle. You can turn off and turn back on the truck and the problem is gone, you dont know when is going to happen again. Normally when you trun on the vehicle in the morning the steering wheel system is a bit hard and you can feel that it get stuck for a moment and then release. There is no message in the dash or any light on. I have not take the truck to any dealer to verify the problem. I did a research and there were a recall for some 2015-2016 models but my VIN is not in that list. I also know that this is happening to more people with a 2015 model but still is not a recall. Do we need to wait until someone crash or have a major issue to consider this a recall,
