Most of the electronic power steering racks have a motor attached with an internal toothed belt like a timing belt. When the belts break or jump a tooth they do what your describing. Last I checked they're not serviceable and pre-calibrated by the manufacturer so that you have to buy a new one when the old one goes out. I'm sure someone somewhere has figured out how to do this but parts for them are impossible to get.

crappy idea + poor design + poor parts = one big fiasco. One more reason I'm keeping my 2007.

I wish you luck in finding a new one

Thanks for the info on the timing. That does make sense. I know I have found belts for this part online and seal kits. But nothing else. But it might take some digging to find how to time this thing but thank you so much for the info.
