As a power steering company that specialises in the Fiat electric steering columns , just thought we would share some of our experience with all Punto owners.
One of the major contributors to early EPS Motor failure on Mk2/3 puntos prior to 2003 is the use of the City button, when you use the City you are putting twice the load on the motor, it was only ever designed to used for short periods of time to help with parking manoeuvers, but as the Punto EPS is light anyway there is no need to use it, so if you want a bit more lfe from your power steering refrain from ever using it.
For help and advice on all power steering matters give us a ring as we are always happy to help.
