while driving at approximately 45 miles per hour electronic power steering system failed and and it felt like the motor in the steering column was trying to pull the car hard right. the EPS warning light on the dash flashed red. Safely stopped the car on the shoulder of road. turned car on and off and resumed driving. problem repeated (this time with steering trying to lock at center) another 1/2 mile down the road. stopped again and pulled and reseated apparently undamaged fuse in under hood fuse box. restarted car and switched drive mode from "normal" to "sport" which changes the cars EPS power assist profile. drove remaining 18 miles home without incident. currently trying to schedule service appointment with dealer.
