1 Power Steering Light On problem

Failure Date: 01/10/2018

My car is Toyota 2010 rv4 sport. This morning when I start engine, the symbols of "electric power steering system warning light , abs, airbag, breaker , slip indicator warning light" on dashboard all lights on. That's never happen before. And when I was driving, the steering wheel become heavy. I was so shocked and go to a local auto service store, they check and told me this is electronic steering motor issue. They adjusted and wheel back to normal now, but they also mention they can not guarantee the same situation will be back or not. And they recommend me try to avoid drive on freeway ( but this is impossible if you live in California). I was told the same problem happen on Toyota recall group but not including my car's make year.
