What can go wrong

It is possible that the nut securing the steering wheel was not correctly tightened when the vehicle was assembled. This could lead to abnormal noise and free play at the steering wheel. If these warnings are ignored the nut could eventually come off and the steering wheel could separate from the steering shaft causing loss of steering ability.

The fix

Recall the vehicles that are likely to be affected to check the steering wheel securing nut is tightened to the correct torque.

Is a specific car affected? A recall lists models and build dates, not individual vehicles, so these pages cannot tell you whether one car is included. Enter the registration on the DVSA vehicle recall checker on GOV.UK, or give the vehicle identification number (VIN) to the manufacturer or one of its dealers. Buying used? Ask the seller for proof that any recall work was done.
