2026 Kia Sportage Steering Problems

Your lane assist system unexpectedly applied strong steering correction while your wife was making a normal left turn onto a side street, causing the steering wheel to jerk and resist her input. This sudden intervention made the vehicle veer toward a guardrail, resulting in a collision. The dashcam footage and police report confirmed the steering wheel jerked toward the guardrail, and your vehicle may be affected by a software issue that prevents warning lights from displaying on the instrument panel, meaning you wouldn't know if the lane assist system malfunctioned.
