## NHTSA's summary

Supersedes Technical Service Bulletin Group 48 number 14\-59 dated June 2, 2014. Electrically\-adjustable steering column adjustment is restricted and does not adjust vertically. Incorrect operation of Easy Entry is not the cause. It is unlikely that external forces have led to the loss of the stored end positions of the adjustment movement. Seat adjustments can be used to maintain the 10\-inch minimum recommended distance from the steering wheel in case of airbag deployment. The axial adjustment is still functional during this condition.
