You could've just hit a pothole or something solid, since the car wouldn't forcefully jerk the wheel back without an outside force. Odds are though your car was angry.I know from experience FCs do this kinda stuff.

like this one time I was driving in this parking lot and my FC saw this riced out Pontiac Sunfire I slid the car in a 720 to avoid it but the brakes didnt respond I got my fc clear but it saw if it hit a van it could send the van into the Pontiac with the big high wing so it hit the van and the van hit the pontiac and then my FC bounced off the van and got a direct hit on the Pontiac Sunfire my FC was just really pissed that night and feeling self destructive at the same time that it wanted to destroy a riced out pontiac

steering inputs are from the road, obviously you hit a line in the road sideways or a pothole which transmitted the feeling to you through the steering wheel.

if you want to feel it again go run into a curb at about 15MPH at an angle and see if you feel it try to push the wheel the other way.

note: only stupid people try the last suggestion. remember, stupid people only.


by the way, what's with all the new driver's always thinking something is wrong with their cars with just single incidents? if it happened only once then usually i forget about it, i don't go getting all emo thinking the car is going to try to kill me.

The original poster is from Quebec. His first language is likey French, not English.

Regardless, the question has been answered and I'm closing this thread before it gets out of hand.
