Power Steering Warning Message Appearing at Startup
What the customer reported
The vehicle owner went to start the vehicle and a "service: power steering drive with care" notification came on.
What we found and did
The technician at our Haines City shop performed an initial assessment and an electrical diagnosis (check engine light on communication codes). The work included replacing the control valve solenoid and the engine variable valve timing solenoid (VVT) using OEM parts, which are replaced in pairs, with gaskets added if needed. Components were removed and replaced as required to access and install the new parts. The notes point out that regular oil changes should be performed, since clean oil helps keep the VVT from failing prematurely.
