Recently, after approximately 4000 miles of driving, my steering has become “sticky.” When trying to make small adjustments in direction, my steering wheel gets “stuck” and requires more force than normal to make the steering correction. This extra force causes a greater change in direction than intended. This past week while traveling on an interstate with wet roads…this problem presented itse…

The steering sticks. I have taken it to the dealer three times and they can’t find anything wrong. It happens a lot when I’m driving but they haven’t felt it on a short test drive. It’s happens frequently, just not enough for the dealer to notice.
After driving the car for around 15 minutes or so the steering becomes very stiff and takes extra effort to turn the wheel. It almost feels like it’s sticking and then releases when it gets to a certain point and then sticks again when the wheel is straightened. It seems to happen more when at speeds of 40mph and over. When the vehicle comes to a stop and you try turning the wheel it somewhat clic…
When driving above 40 mph and driving straight the steering wheel is sticky and feels like I'm constantly having to correct it slightly makes me feel like I'm swerving all the time
When driving it’s as if the steering gets stuck. The vehicle will start to pull from the left to right as if bouncing from one side of the lane to the other. All lane keep assist and road departure features are turned off. Began around 2k miles and currently has 5500. Causing me to over correct and make jerky motions to keep in lane. Sometimes feels like it doesn’t want to correct at all. Noticing…
When driving at any speed, but particularly exceeding 40MPH, making minor adjustments to steering is sticky and requires excessive force to make the adjustment. When making the adjustment, the vehicle often makes an over-adjustment, and requires an over correction. This is particularly dangerous at highway speeds, where the problem occurs more frequently.
Sticky steering
Steering wheel sticks when making small adjustments at highway speed, which can cause jerking/swerving. Occurs more often in colder weather and after car has been driven for a period of time. Does not happen consistently and was unable to replicate the issue for the dealership. No warning lights on dashboard.
After driving for a certain amount of time and above 35 mph, the steering wheel becomes sticky when trying to adjust direction of the car. For example if there is a bend on the highway, the steering wheel will be come stuck for a second before applying a little more force to turn the vehicle.
Recurring issue where the steering wheel is sticking/not turning smoothly. This feels as though the car may suddenly overcorrect (such as into oncoming traffic or off the road) when the wheel finally snaps into place as you turn it. It is scheduled to go to to the dealer. There are no warning lights or messages.
