Why does the Kia ProCeed's power steering feel unusually stiff?

I recently test drove the Kia ProCeed and noticed that the power steering felt a bit stiff compared to other cars I've driven. Is this normal for this model or could there be an issue with the steering system?

Hi Samantha, this could be caused by a few different things. It's possible that the power steering fluid needs to be topped off, or there could be an issue with the steering pump. I recommend taking the car to a trusted mechanic for a thorough inspection.

I also noticed the stiff steering on my Kia ProCeed. After some research, I found out that this is a common issue with this model. However, it shouldn't affect the overall performance of the car. Just be sure to regularly check and maintain the power steering system.

Don't worry Samantha, there's nothing wrong with your car. The Kia ProCeed's electric power steering is designed to provide a sportier and more responsive handling, which may feel a bit stiffer compared to traditional hydraulic steering. It's just a matter of getting used to it.
