Issue

On certain vehicles, the steering column could break due to a defective weld. If this occurs, the steering wheel could separate from the rest of the steering system, resulting in the loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace the steering column as necessary.
