Hi, all. We recently experience the "jerky steering sensation" described in an earlier post. My wife first noticed the problem while driving home from work and waited until I drove the car the next day to see if I also noticed the strange behavior, which was very obvious, but hard to describe. Essentially, it felt like the sensitivity of the steering was randomly changing. It didn't always happen, but when it did, the loss of control was uncomfortable.
Our MY 2013 XC90 R-Design is under warranty. The dealer did not find a mechanical problem, but did replace the computer module for the speed sensitive steering. After one week of driving since the repair, we have not noticed the strange behavior. Let's hope it's fixed. And perhaps this post gives others something to consider if experiencing strange steering issues.
