Why is my Kia Soul's steering feeling heavy?

Lately, I've noticed that my Kia Soul's steering has been feeling heavy and difficult to maneuver. What could be causing this issue and how can I fix it?

There are a few potential reasons for your heavy steering. One possibility is that the power steering fluid is low or needs to be flushed. Another possibility could be an issue with the power steering pump or the steering rack. I recommend taking your car to a trusted mechanic for a diagnostic check.

It's also possible that your tires are underinflated, causing the steering to feel heavy. Check your tire pressure and fill them up if needed. Make sure to also rotate your tires regularly to prevent uneven wear.

Have you recently hit any potholes or curb? If so, it's possible that your car's alignment could be off, causing the heavy steering. I suggest taking your car to a professional alignment shop to get it checked and corrected.
