Hey gang.
Last night I parked my car with some lock to the left and this morning when I drove off too work I get a message saying active steering fault and the steering wheel is at about 1 o clock.
Any quick fixes?

U can reset it yourself. Just turn the car on and turn the wheel all the to the L and then to the R. Turn the wheel back to the center and turn the car off then on. It's n the manual. If that doesn't work do vice versa R then L.
