On certain vehicles, the steering wheel fastener nut may have been insufficiently tightened during vehicle assembly. This could allow the steering wheel to become loose and slip in relation to the steering column shaft, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will re-torque the steering wheel nut.
