steering question

[StillKickin]

I have a 2012 RTS. The steering seems hard to me, always has. I test rode a 2014 and was amazed at how easy it was to steer. Almost too easy! Very responsive! My question is this, is there a way to improve the steering on my 2012? I don't know what has changed between the years, but the difference is significant. I made that comment to the dealer where I test rode the 14 and he said, "they've come along ways with their improvements over the years". No specifics. Anybody know what's changed and is that something that can be modified on my 2012? :dontknow:

Little checking..!!

two things you can check..one is the tire pressure and the other is if the DPS (dynamic power steering) is working properly. Air pressure should be no problem but the DPS might run by the dealer. There may be some update or codes requiring the buds system...:thumbup:

Thanks for the quick reply! I will check with the dealer.

Have you had a laser alignment done?

Have you had a laser alignment done?

Yes, no difference

I'm wondering what has changed the last couple of years. Different Power Steering pump? And could that improvement be made to mine?

Has anyone else noticed this? Am I the only one?

position of wheel weights makes a difference alao. But mainly air pressure.
