What NHTSA recorded

An incorrect steering shaft retaining nut is installed on the shaft and can loosen causing steering play. Consequence of defects: if nut is not replaced, steering wheel disengagement could occur causing loss of steering control and possibly a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Install proper nut to ensure steering wheel retention.
