The Steering Wheel Became Loose And Had An Extreme Amount Of Play In It. I Took It In To The Dealer To Have It Checked And Repaired. They Took Care Of It With No Problem. After Returning Home My Wife Suggested I Check And See If There Had Been A Recall About This Issue And I Found The Article About The 2014 To 2016 Investigation.

I Was Driving Through San Juan Capistrano California Evening Of Jan 3rd 2018 West Bound On Hwy 74 Having Just Past The Overpass On I-5. I Was Only Going About 30 Mph And The Steering Suddenly Stopped Working And My Car Floated Over And I Could Not Stop It Or Steer. It Was The Strangest Thing I Ever Experienced. I Felt The Sensors In The Car Suck In. My Car Bounced Over The Curb And The Right Front Wheel Was Torn Off It. The Insurance Company Totaled My Car Out And The Loss Of My Car Has Been Significant Loss Of Income And Ability To Work Too. I Lost So Much Over This Car Being Totaled. I Has Usaa Auto Insurance And Gap Coverage On The Note. However I Had No Idea About How Insurance And The Ability To Restore Insurance Would Be Affected. I Have Had To See This As An At Fault Accident And It Raised My Insurance And Impacts Me Negatively In Many Ways Financially. Airbags Did Not Deploy I Attached Loss Docs, I Have Pics Of Car As Well As Wheel Well Where Wheel Was Pulled Off After Bouncing Over The High Curb.
