## What is wrong

On certain vehicles previously repaired under recalls 2014\-237 or 2015\-535, the pinion plug may not have been secured properly. As a result, the pinion gear may separate from the steering gear assembly causing a loss of steering which could result in a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the pinion plug to ensure that the recall repair, if previously conducted, was properly done. Based on the inspection results, the recall repairs will either be redone with an improved method or, if necessary, the steering assembly will be replaced. Note: This recall supersedes recalls 2014\-237 and 2015\-535. Vehicles repaired under the previous recall\(s\) will require re\-inspection and possible repair.
