When it's a little cold out and i start up my car,my steering wheel will not turn, it's like it is locked. until it warms up a bit i can't and will not move it until it becomes normal again. this has been an ongoing issue since the beginning of oct. 2019.i understand it has everything to do with the electronic steering component. i am very concerned it may lock up on me while i'm driving and cause an accident??
Light on longer than normal when start car. sometimes stiff when turning wheel while vehicle is stationary.
Steering goes stiff with car running/stationary and steering warning light on longer than normal. fearful problem will occur while moving

My srs airbag warning light came on out of nowhere. shortly after that my steering wheel continually clicks when i turn it. and within the same day now my horn stopped working as well as all of the buttons on the steering wheel no longer work including the cruise control. the light never went away and the functions of the steering wheel no longer work when there is no cause or reason for this to happen.
I was driving out of a parking lot at 10-15mph. a car was waiting to turn at a stop sign 200 feet ahead. the road had mild snow and ice and was on a 20 degree slope, so i stepped gently on the brake. there was no response from the car. i stepped off the brake and stepped down a little harder. there was mild response. i continued pushing on the brake, and was able to push all the way down to the floor. the car did not stop. 50 feet before collision, i attempted turning the wheel to get out of the way, but the car only shifted 3 feet before i collided with the front car. 50 minutes after the incident, i was driving the same car home at 25mph. the city street was flat and straight, and there was mild snow and ice. a car was turning right at an intersection 250 ft ahead. i was worried this time, and pressed on the brake earlier at moderate pressure (pedal half down). in the past, that type of pressure could decrease the car from 35 to 10mph in 100ft. this time, the car only decreased from 25 to 15mph in 245ft. i was lucky the driver ahead turned, because it would have been a second collision in one day. *tr

Steering wheel recall. i was coming out from an alley to get into the main road, the steering wheel froze, locked up, or jammed to the right. quickly stepped on the brake to avoid injury and damage to the car. had to restart engine to gain control of car. could be fatal if there was oncoming car or merging on interstate.
Brakes make a grinding noise as soon as bought car, took for 1st oil change and told them, also drives like floating or weaving down highway also told about at dealership. now the heater and air is not right all the time.
