In at least some implementations, a method of estimating road friction, includes determining an actual steering load, determining a nominal steering load as a function of vehicle speed, steering angle, and a nominal road friction value, and comparing the actual steering load to the nominal steering load to determine an estimated road friction. In at least some implementations, the nominal steering load is not determined as a function of vehicle yaw, or vehicle lateral acceleration, or vehicle wheel speed compared to vehicle speed, or vehicle tire compliance or road wheel angle.
