Subaru has moved to using electronic power steering in their vehicles because it is generally more reliable than the older hydraulic style of steering. There are less moving components that are in the steering system with an electric motor and this can be easier to fix if there are problems that arise. The most common problem in a 2012 Subaru Impreza power steering system is that there will be power steering motor problems. There is an electronic motor that aids You when You are steering and if this loses power through a blown fuse it will not work. It is also possible for the motor to fail completely and need to be replaced which will lose all power steering.
