Stiff Power Steering didn't make the owner feel safe driving it home after going to the grocery store. Watch how we helped the owner by picking up the car, back at the shop ran some tests found and fixed the problem on this 2014 Mercedes Benz e350 wagon.

Same issue with my car c220 d model so what to do?

[@42aquamarine]

Did you have to use the scan tool to clear the code after changing the battery or was the code automatically reset after starting the car?

[@fivish]

Changed a Hyundai Trajet battery after 12 years. Its now 17 years old.
Honda Civic sold on after 8 years with original battery.
Toyota Corolla sold on after 9 years with original battery.

The power steering malfunction show the reason is dead battery right? once change new battery all back to normal right?

Nice one. So many issues often lead back to batteries. I bought a nice 560SEC from Charlie years ago. Wish I never sold it black on black and like new. 4.5k!! Bargain

Hi
I have got problem with my E class 2017 E350 The power steering malfunction on with loud noise and vibration in the steering wheel and heavy steering wheel. Any idea

[@Stephen-zw6lo]

I have just got a power steering malfunction along the anti theft warning on the info screen. This and the fact now the car wont select a gear and start. I believe I need a new battery? The car is a Mercedes C300h 2016.

[@berks.218]

Very informative video, I have another kind of issue with the steering wheel, once I start driving the car, steering wheel is too soft and reactive which feels like I am driving on the ice especially in higher speeds, after an hour of driving, steering wheel returns normal stiffness, would this be due to the battery is about to die as well? Ps. No error on the dash

[@nikosougias1298]

thank you! The 1st thing I would do is pull codes out of the car with a Mercedes scanner. I would get codes from all modules and see if there are any similar codes across other modules.

[@77Scarlet]

Omg me right now leaving the post office! Steering is not hard. Doesn't feel any different while driving. The warning popped up for 1 second. I just got a new battery 2 yrs ago.

[@gbolahanladoja5382]

How did you resolve it?

[@debbiedurrance9433]

So I have a mercedes E class 350 sedan and I drove through water but it was like 4 inches deep and for some reason the steering wheel is hard or like tight to turn but drive reverse park I even drove the car home almost like the only reason it is like that is because of the warning of power steering malfunction everything else sounds great no squeeling no gringing just steering wheel is tight I also unhooked the battery in the front under the hood for 30 min and checked all the fuses then turned the car over and still has warning and wheel still tight please. Help

[@fixingcars]

Hello Debbie, did your car have a power steering failure right after you drove through water? You need to get the car into a competent Mercedes specialist. They need to access all trouble codes. List the codes with descriptions here. The steering unit on this car is on the very bottom of the car, it wouldn’t surprise me if the unit got water in it and possibly failed. Or, hopefully it may have got water in it and popped a fuse?? It must be tested first.
