Issue
On certain vehicles, the contacts inside of the electric power steering control unit may not have been properly welded. If the pins were to completely lose contact, it would result in a sudden loss of 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 replace the electric power steering rack.
