I was driving east bound on [XXX] near the [XXX] exit and using the fully automated driving (where I am watching the road to take over if necessary but the vehicle was maintaining speed and steering) I received the following errors: (I symbol error) Reduced driver assistance, (triangle error) Forward Collision Mitigation, (triangle error) Assisted Driving, (I symbol) Lane Change Assistant. Directly after receiving these errors the steering wheel was stuck at center and required an extreme amount of effort to turn the wheel in any direction. At first I thought it was because the automated system was still engaged but I tried to turn it off and nothing happened. At this point I am getting a little scared as the vehicle is responding to my pedal input but the steering wheel will not release properly. I tried calling the BMW Assist people and they told me to call roadside assistance which would not have helped in my opinion so I told them I didn’t want to be transferred over there. I decided to drive the rest of the way home as it was mostly straight getting there. I was concerned that I would have no evidence of this happening so I took a video of what was happening while still on the freeway and recorded my driving for evidence if needed. I was able to exit the highway with extreme difficulty in turning the steering wheel to the point that I was worried I wouldn’t be able to capture it on my recording because I thought I might need to use both hands due to the extreme resistance the vehicle was causing. The vehicle finally released the steering wheel so I could drive normally once I came to a complete stop at [XXX] (the exit went into a roundabout and there was no oncoming traffic so I did not stop directly off the highway). I have informed both BMW Northwest (the dealer I purchased from) and BMW USA of this issue and am currently awaiting a response from BMW USA.
