The issue

On certain vehicles, the bracket that secures the steering column assembly may have been improperly welded and could separate. If this occurs, a driver may notice a loose feeling and/or a loud clunking noise from the steering column while turning the steering wheel. Ultimately, this could cause a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the cross cowl bar assembly to ensure the steering column assembly is properly secured.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, le support qui fixe la colonne de direction pourrait avoir été mal soudé et pourrait se détacher. Si cela se produisait, le conducteur pourrait remarquer une sensation de lâcheté ou un fort bruit sourd provenant de la colonne de direction pendant qu'il tourne le volant. Cela pourrait finir par causer une perte de contrôle de la direction, ce qui augmente les risques d'un accident blessant quelqu'un ou endommageant des biens matériels. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer la barre transversale de l'auvent pour s'assurer que la colonne de direction est adéquatement fixée.
