Hazard
The circuit short-circuit detection software of the speed-responsive power steering system is inadequate, causing false detection of circuit shorts during driving. This results in the power steering assist being fixed at the low-assist level for high-speed driving, potentially making steering operation difficult.

Remedy
Replace the circuit short-circuit detection software with corrective software.
