I've had 2 occurences where I get the "service power steering. Drive carefully" message and the car becomes harder to steer/turn. On the first occurence the issue went away after restarting the car. Now, the check engine light stays on and the car remains hard to steer even after restarting / waiting a day. Both occurrences happened while the car was in motion. First driving on the street and now it happened while driving on the freeway.

My Corvette is a Z06 that is designed and built for track use. When I use it on track it overheats and goes into limp mode after about 15 mins. Sometimes the power steer faults making it difficult and dangerous to control the car. I do not use it regularly on the street.
