WARNING: The EPS has diagnostics checks that continuously

monitor the EPS to ensure proper operation of the electronic

system. When an electronic error is detected, the message STEERING

ASSIST FAULT SERVICE REQUIRED will be displayed in the message

center. If this happens, stop the vehicle in a safe place and turn off the

engine. After at least 10 seconds, reset the system by restarting the

engine, and watch the message center for STEERING ASSIST FAULT

SERVICE REQUIRED. If the message returns, or returns while driving,

take the vehicle to your dealer to have it checked. With the message

displayed, the steering assist is turned off, making the vehicle harder

to steer.

If the steering wanders or pulls, check for:

• an improperly inflated tire.

• uneven tire wear.

• loose or worn suspension components.

• loose or worn steering components.

• improper steering alignment.

A high crown in the road or high crosswinds may also make the steering

seem to wander/pull.

BRAKE-SHIFT INTERLOCK

the on position and the brake pedal pressed, it is possible that a fuse has

blown or the vehicle’s brake lamps are not operating properly. Refer to

Fuses and relays in the Roadside Emergencies chapter.

If the fuse is not blown and the brake lamps are working properly, the

following procedure will allow you to move the gearshift lever from P

(Park):
