## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, insufficient electrical contact may occur in the torque sensor which controls the power assist operation of the electric power steering gear box.  This could possibly cause the power steering warning icon to be displayed and the driver would experience higher than normal steering effort.  Correction:  Vehicles will be inspected and, if necessary, electric steering box will be replaced.
