A motor vehicle steering system may include an electric motor and a control unit that controls the electric motor. The control unit may have at least two redundant control paths for controlling the electric motor and an asymmetry detection device. The asymmetry detection device may be configured to compare electric current intensities of the at least two redundant control paths and to cause a faulty control path to be interrupted when there is asymmetry. Each of the at least two redundant control paths may include a switching element that is connected to the asymmetry detection device for interrupting the respective redundant control path.
