20161492016-04-07. Steering. On certain vehicles, the electric power steering (EPS) control circuit board could become damaged and fail. If this occurs, a red "EPS" warning lamp will illuminate in the instrument cluster to inform the driver that steering assist is no longer provided. Steering control can be maintained, as the vehicle will revert to a manual steering mode, but will require greater driver effort. The sudden change in steering effort may increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or property damage. Correction: Dealers will replace the EPS control unit.
20103212010-09-23. Steering. On certain vehicles, the steering column intermediate shaft universal joint connection may have been improperly assembled or insufficiently tightened. A loose or improperly tightened connection may produce noise or a steering feel which is loose or unresponsive. If these signals were to go undetected or no action was taken by the driver, a separation of the joint could result, leading to a loss of ability to steer the front wheels and increasing the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, tighten steering column u-joint bolts to specs.

A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
