Exact same recall is documented here for the Yarris http://www.autonews.com/article/2013...-steering-flaw

The steering is heavy as when you turn off the car, not sure if anyone here experienced this problem but it was a frighten experience for me so guys be extremely careful not to drive too fast around the bends.

Taking the car to Toyota tomorrow.
For all in doubt here is the official recall of the steering faulty-> http://www.news.com.au/finance/busin...da0f6c034f5478
