Abstract

A steering system for motor vehicles, including a steering actuator which acts on the steered wheels, is electronically controlled based on a steering request and acts on the steered wheels via a steering gear, and an actuator device which transmits reactions to a steering shaft connected to the steering wheel. The steer-by-wire steering system has a holding brake which can be activated electrically and has two positions; a holding position and an open position. The holding brake is configured to block rotation of the steering shaft in the holding position when a predefined rotational angle of the steering shaft is exceeded, and to release rotation of the steering shaft in the open position.
