Electronic power steering system
HINT:
The amount of power assist may be decreased to prevent the
motor and ECUs from overheating if the steering wheel is
continuously turned when the vehicle is either stopped or
driven at a low speed, or if the steering wheel is kept at either
full lock position for a long time. In such cases, the amount of
power assist returns to normal if the steering wheel is not
turned for approximately 10 minutes with the engine idling.
