Due to insufficient strength of the steering column mounting bracket, if the steering wheel is frequently and forcefully turned to the full-lock position, a crack could develop in the bracket. If the vehicle is continuously operated in this condition, the steering column assembly could become unsecured.
The recall affects vehicles produced in 2005 to 2009.

What the owner should do?
If you read about a recall that you think may affect your car, you should make immediate contact with a dealer or workshop that’s been officially authorised to perform repairs on behalf of the manufacturer and ask for the details.
If you wish to know more about eventual problems of a specific car (e.g. real mileage, potential traffic accidents damages, odometer rollback, repairs, etc.), then we suggest going to HPI-Check.
