Two problems related to power steering light on have been reported for the 2011 Volkswagen CC. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Started the car and the red steering wheel light came on. I have no power steering. Turned the car off, restarted and power steering was active and red light was off but the effort to turn was lighter than normal. The next time we started the car we had no power steering again. This is very dangerous, when it does work it over corrects the steering at highway speeds. When not working my wife can not turn the wheel. The dealer diagnosed a short in the steering rack. $2000 to fix something that should last at least 100,000 miles.
While turning onto a major intersection, a red steering wheel light popped up on my dash display and the steering wheel locked immediately. . . It took a great deal of strength to get my car to safety in a parking lot before the steering wheel could not be moved at all. Contacted the dealership I bought it from as I only had the car for 2 days.
