When i push the start button on my vehicle it takes a minute to start. It doesn't start up right away like it used to. Then the steering wheel becomes locked making it hard to steer. When i drive the vehicle the wheel then gets loose.

Electric power steering is extremely over boosted. I have to struggle to maintain a straight line at speeds excess of 50 mph as any input results in extreme angle. Difficult to driver at highway speeds, even with cruise control. Please fix this!

With this distraction it leaves one not giving other safety observations as much time to monitor.. Toyota has been aware of this in older model years but has failed to address it since not enough owners cars…
