## NHTSA's summary

In these vehicles, Toyota has received some reports where, after securing the telescopic adjustment lever, the steering column?s telescopic adjustment function may not retain its set adjusted position. Although the Steering Column Telescopic Adjustment Lever Detent Clip is covered by Toyota?s New Vehicle Limited Warranty for 3 years or 36,000 miles \(whichever occurs first\), we at Toyota care about the customers? ownership experience.
