I have just bought a 2015 Tucson and have a problem with the steering on motorway driving. The steering "sticks" left and right of dead ahead after about 30 minutes at speed on the motorway. It is as if the power steering has gone to sleep because there is little steering on the motorway and then wakes up. This problem has been documented before on forums and with Kia and GM, but there have been a lot of suggestions as to what to do to remedy the fault with no clear solutions. The question is what exactly is the fault and how do you solve it? It is not something you can easily live with and ruins the driving experience of this car.

Got to be a dealer / reliable indie garage assessment. Steering issues can't be 2nd guessed unfortunately. Hope it gets sorted.
