What's wrong: On certain minivans and sport utility vehicles, the steering column may be incorrectly assembled, which could result in a loss of steering control.

Why it matters: Loss of steering control can cause a vehicle crash without prior notice.

The fix: Owners were notified by telephone on January 25, 2005, and arrangements were made to have their vehicles towed to their dealers and have the repairs performed. The recall began on January 25, 2005.
