Loose Steering Wheel Triggers Ford Recall Of 1.4 Million Cars

A failure to properly affix steering wheels has triggered a recall of 1.38 million Ford and Lincoln cars in North America.  Ford Motor is issuing a safety recall for the 2014 through 2018 model-year Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ sedans.

The recall comes after officials discovered that the cars have “potentially loose steering wheel bolts that could result in a steering wheel detaching from the steering column,” Ford said in a statement.  The automaker said it had identified at least two accidents potentially connected to the defect, as well as one injury.
