Hello, I'm Danny.

There are many components in the electric steering system. What we ask you to do is perform a CAN scan to retrieve all code information from your car. A CAN scan will test all the systems on your car including the electronic steering you've mentioned. Here is a tutorial showing what is involved for a CAN scan:

After performing this procedure get back to us with all stored code information and then we can properly diagnose these issues with your car. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
