Peugeot 208 steering vibration

Hi, I'm having a weird issue with my 2023 Peugeot 208 (electric engine). The steering wheel vibrates, and the handling feels spongy. Also, there's an error stored in the system. It's getting harder to steer, feels like the power steering is failing. Has anyone experienced something similar? It has only 41384 km on the clock. Any ideas what could be causing this?

Hey! I have a 208 too, and I had a similar issue a while back. The steering felt really off, like I was fighting it. Was the error message power steering related?

Yes, the error message does point to the power steering. Did your error also show a defective cable or plug connection as the likely cause?

I can't remember the exact error details, but yeah, sounds very similar. I'd recommend getting it checked out at a workshop. Could be a simple fix, but better safe than sorry with steering!

Thanks for the insight! I took it to the workshop, and you were right – it was a defective cable connection. Repair cost me 95€ Appreciate the advice!
