steering warning

did you guys ever get warning of your steering, it asked me to drive moderately and go to service? it happened when I was parking my car. Is this a big issue?

This happened to me a couple of weeks ago. The dealership replaced the steering control unit and reprogrammed the car.

isn't it serious problem? I have aftermarket wheels right now on my car, do you think it happens due to aftermarket wheels?

Most likely it is an issue with the control unit and nothing to do with the wheels. And, opinions may vary, but to me anytime the steering doesn't work properly it is a serious problem.
