Official summary

The steering gear, which transmits the rotational movement of the steering wheel to the front wheels, must be replaced. Two sensors record the driver's steering requirements and may be faulty. The driver is notified of a fault by a Check Control message on the Central Display and a minimally changed steering feel.

Vehicles covered

What a TSB means. Technical service bulletins are repair guidance manufacturers send to dealers — they are not recalls, and repairs are not automatically free (warranty extensions are an exception worth checking). The full document is available via NHTSA’s vehicle lookup.
