I could be crazy, but something just seemed off.

The other day on my drive to work in the rain/moist weather, whenever I got up around 60+MPH, it seemed like my steering wheel would stick a little. As in, I would try to move the wheel to make SMALL adjustments, and it just didn't want to move - it wasn't smooth. Is this some sort of steering assist kicking in because the road was wet, or what?

Today it was dry out, and I didn't notice the problem. I'm not sure how else to describe it, but I'm curious if anyone else has noticed something like this...

Maybe it's the traction control? I notice the opposite, my car is more sensitive if anything.

I too thought it might be traction control, so I'm going to turn it off the next time it's raining just to see. It's ridiculously annoying. I just want to be sure it isn't something more serious.

My car just started this - not in rain.

Apparently it's a problem with the electronic power steering. There's a few threads here about it.
