STEERING:ELECTRIC POWER ASSIST SYSTEM
What Happened
The power steering system in your MINI Cooper is what helps you turn the wheels with less effort. In some 2002-2005 models, this system could fail, making it harder to steer the vehicle.
Risk if Unfixed
If the power steering assist fails, you'll need to use more force to turn the wheels, especially at slower speeds. This could make it harder to control your car, increasing the risk of a crash.
Free Fix
MINI will inspect the power steering system and replace any faulty components and wiring at no cost to you. The repair will happen when the new parts are available, and you'll get a second notice with the details.
