Issue
On certain vehicles, a bracket for a transistor in the power steering control unit may break due to vibrations and temperature variations during vehicle operation. If the bracket were to break, the control unit may disable the power steering assist, which could unexpectedly increase steering effort, and increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the steering rack and replace it, if necessary.
