Details

What's wrong: The steering column upper shaft bolts may be missing or improperly tightened, resulting in possible separation of the steering column from the adjoining components.

Why it matters: A disconnected steering column can result in a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Dealers will inspect and tighten the steering column upper shaft coupler bolts, or install any missing bolts, as necessary, free of charge. Owner notification letters were mailed June 1, 2023.
