This could result in an intermittent or permanent sudden loss of power steering assist while driving. 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 rack and pinion gear assembly.","consequence":null,"remedy":null,"notes":null,"mfr_campaign":"S19","part_number":null,"units":59,"completion":null,"do_not_drive":null,"park_outside":null,"notification":"Safety Mfr","french":{"component":"Direction","notification":"Sécurité - fabricant","summary":"Sur certains véhicules, la carte de circuits imprimés du module de commande de la direction assistée électrique pourrait avoir été contaminée lors de la construction. Par conséquent, la direction assistée électrique pourrait cesser de fonctionner soudainement, de façon intermittente ou permanente, au cours de l'exploitation du véhicule. Il sera possible de maintenir le contrôle de la direction, car le véhicule passera en mode de direction manuelle, mais le conducteur devra exercer un plus grand effort sur le volant. Le changement soudain de mode de direction pourrait augmenter les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux).
