Power Steering

If you lose power steering assist because the engine
stops or the system is not functioning, you can steer
but it will take much more effort.

Variable Effort Steering (Option)

This steering system provides less steering effort
for parking and when driving at speeds below 20 mph
(32 km/h). Steering effort will increase at higher speeds
for improved road feel.
