Ford Motor Company is recalling approximately 1,902 of its 2023-2024 Transit vehicles because the steering column may have been assembled with an incorrect bolt. This specific defect can lead to the separation of steering components, which would cause the driver to lose control of the vehicle. Authorized dealers will replace the steering column intermediate shaft bolt free of charge to ensure the assembly is secure.
The use of an incorrect bolt can cause the steering column intermediate shaft to disconnect from the steering gear pinion shaft. If these components separate while driving, the driver will lose the ability to steer the vehicle, significantly increasing the risk of a crash.
Free replacement of the steering column intermediate shaft bolt.
