@NemixDevI guess it's because not many people caught on to the fact that this was actually a wide spread issue at the time, since they thought it was something that only happened with their car.I was speaking to Crowned about it on Twitter. We thought it was just the Evo IX but then other folks chimed in with their experiences, and it turns out it happens to so many other cars.Also the theory that it only happens when switching to 2nd gear goes completely out the window since I attached a clip showing my Evo locking up in 1st gear without shifting at all.

@Scion426 Yeah that sucks big time. This is something that needs to be addressed because it actually affects so many more cars than we initially thought.Crowned told me that turning on traction control fixes it. I tried that on my Evo and it works but you can no longer power slide around corners.

@NemixDev I guess that's good that it doesn't affect the Pagani. I've been turning traction control on for problem cars which seems to fix the issue but it prevents you from sliding.

I'm having this problem with my McLaren P1 GTR which sucks because it kinda makes it worthless to drop 2 million bucks on

@Riceman_NuxI have the same problem i posted the same thing a while ago and nobody seems to care about it.https://answers.ea.com/t5/Bug-Reports/Steering-problem-when-accelerating/m-p/8409941PSI figured out that it locks when car shifts into 2nd gear, so im driving pagani huayra now because it has long 1st gear and i can exit the corner before it shifts to 2nd gear, never had the problem with pagani so far....

@Joker25273 Yeah it's really annoying because it abruptly takes control away from you. Hopefully it gets ironed out sooner rather than later

@Riceman_Nux Hmmm, you are right.. but i got it locking on fast accelerating cars only, and pagani(as a fast accelerating car) never locked for me.

I've been having the same problem with all of my cars. It seems to happen most often when I'm making iht turn and it will lock when I hit the gas.
