This seems to be the single most commented-on "sore point" in virtually all of the Leaf reivews I've seen from the professional reviewers (and from many future Leaf owners as well!). Based on my two test drives, I agree...at low speeds the boost is too strong and on-center too vague. Nissan says that it is reduced at highway speeds, but alas, the Drive Electric Tour didn't allow me to get to those speeds.
Does anyone know whether Nissan has heard the chorus and will be doing anything about the vague steering feel prior to the first production models rolling off the boat? Or even afterwards? It seems to me like this should be a relatively simple software modification. I'm sure that the steering boost is controlled by a computer somewhere on the vehicle...
