An electric power assisted steering assembly comprises a steering mechanism which operatively connects a steering wheel to the road wheels of a vehicle, a torque sensing means which is adapted to produce an output signal indicative of the torque applied to a portion of the steering mechanism by the driver, a signal processing means which is adapted to control the motor so as to cause the motor to apply a torque to the steering mechanism to assist the driver, and a compensation torque generating means which is adapted to combine a torque value representative of the motor applied torque with the output of the torque sensor to produce a compensation torque signal that is to be applied by the motor to the steering mechanism that at least partially compensates for any pull on the steering due to suspension misalignment.
