My steering is randomly lurching left. It has happened off and on intermittently since it started in early September 2025. It happens at various speeds, but currently only when turning the steering wheel slightly to the left.
Power steering fails and then begins working again, happened while driving and lost power steering while getting off the highway.
2013 Impreza with approximately 50,000 miles has steering problems. At low speeds steering wheel turns left on its own. At other speeds you have to hold wheel so it doesn't pull left. Much harder to turn right at any speed. Told by dealer has leaking steering rack.
2013 Subaru Impreza has 67,000 miles. Steering pulls to the left when driving and then all the way to the left when stopped or turned off. Very hard to keep straight. Subaru dealer told me I needed a new steering rack and electronic steering module. Replacement would be 2000. 00. They told me to call 1800subaru3. I did not have it fixed.
Car has 55,000 miles. Steering box cracked and driving assist sensor pulls car abruptly to the left when driving. Need to hold wheel tight and fight it to not pull car into oncoming traffic. When parking and braking car wheel will turn several times to left until completely left.
The steering became uneven and "sloppy" when not moving. When moving, it was easier to turn one direction than the other. The problem is described in Subaru service bulletin number 04-21-18. The steering rack assembly was replaced by the dealer. I retained the part and found that the steering gear box had cracks as described in the service bulletin.
The contact owns a 2013 Subaru Impreza. While driving various speeds, the electronic steering shifted the direction of the vehicle without warning. As a result, the contact had to apply force to the steering wheel to correct the steering. The contact took the vehicle to quirk auto group (293 hogan rd, bangor, me 04401, (866) 413-4706) where it was diagnosed that the electronic steering gear box needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified. The failure mileage was 48,000.
Brake failure at low speed coming to stop at traffic light, traction control light came on,brake light came on and check engine light on. Returned to dealer to repair. Dealer took 2 days to repair . At witch it lasted till today(12/30/2013). The same thing has happened again. Very scary you wonder if the car is reliable and always afraid to travel now. Have grandchildren and cannot trust this car. I hope someone can help. Have to return to dealer (again) to have them look at it (again). Wonder if they know how to fix it.
