Why does the steering in my Kia Rio feel stiff?

I have noticed that the steering in my Kia Rio feels stiff and requires more effort to turn the wheel. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?

It is possible that there is an issue with the power steering system. You should have it checked by a mechanic to determine the cause and make any necessary repairs.

Another possible cause could be low power steering fluid. Check the fluid level and top off if necessary. If the issue persists, it's best to take your car to a professional for further inspection.

Sometimes, stiff steering can be caused by worn out or damaged steering components. It's best to have a professional inspect and replace any faulty parts to ensure safe and smooth driving.
