Dangers of Over the Air Updates - Hyundai Kona 2023 power steering

Two days ago I did the Over the Air (OTA) update for my new Hyundai Electric Kona 2023. It was weird so see how much changed (many of the changes not listed at all on the update documentation) but either they altered how the power-steering works or the update turned power steering off. They car is a lot harder to drive now, and it feels like a different car (one which I would not have bought). So while the radio became much better, the danger of OTA updates is that now you may change the profile of the car so much it's a different product.
