A relay in the power steering control module needs to be replaced.

You are lucky in Canada that Toyota called you. In Australia not a single words about recall Yaris model 2012 (mostly assembled in Japan where 130k been recalled.
Good luck friend. |

"...due to a glitch in the electric power steering system, which could make the steering heavier."
There are threads on this forum about removing the PS relay to get a more solid feel for the steering. The steering is heavier, especially at slower speeds, but steering feedback is great at highway speeds.
