The issue:
Ford has launched a recall involving about 12,300 Ford F-150 vehicles made in 2015.
The recall involves a shaft issue that could result in the loss of steering control, according to Ford. There is a chance the upper I-shaft was riveted incorrectly, which could cause it to separate.
The fix:
Dealers are being told to inspect, and if necessary, replace the upper I-shaft assembly, free of charge to customers.
Injuries or accidents:
One report of loss of steering has been linked to the issue so far but no injuries or accidents as of yet, according to Ford.
Recall date:
The recall is set to begin on May 18. Owners should receive their notices in the mail sometime this month.
Number of Models Affected:
Approximately 12,328 vehicles are affected by the recall in North America.
