Steering wheel will not return to center after making turns in any direction. Steering has gradually stiffened, but is immediately noticeable. This car is driven daily by my spouse. Our child with his new learner's permit noted how he had to turn the wheel back and it didn't happen automatically like the car he took driving lessons in. I drove the car and it was plainly obvious that the steering wheel was stiff and nearly frozen. Car has 42,000 miles and is no longer covered by GM's warranty. I am bringing it to an independent mechanic for repair, immediately.

The steering wheel occasionally becomes unresponsive and does not return to center after making turns or slight adjustments, particularly at low to moderate speeds.

Steering

Multiple instances seemingly at random of steering wheel not adjusting to center, wanting to turn one direction or another, and generally loose feeling of steering. This is all with the lane keep assist feature off.
