This issue is potentially dangerous to the driver, its passengers and other vehicles as the steering assist does not adjust itself in real-time, and the driver will not be able to predict the amount of steering assist provided from the EPS. Due to this, the driver may accidentally cause the car to swerve as he/she cannot predict the amount of strength needed to turn the steering wheel. This is may cause the driver to lose control, especially in wet conditions as the driver may overspin the steering wheel unintentionally.

Another side-effect due to this delay is that momentarily, the steering is too light at high speed which could be fatal to the car's control until the EPS system reduces the steering assist.

Given that this model is the company's best-selling car and the EPS system is installed on the entire range of this particular model's lineup, this poses a very significant problem. To add, this model has a very significant number on Malaysia's roads, and this model is also exported to its neighbouring countries.
