Summary
14327 - special coverage. Some vehicles may have been built without a steering gear umbrella seal. Without the seal, water and dirt may enter the system and could cause the rack and pinion parts to corrode. If corrosion exists, the “feel” of the steering wheel will be loose. If the system is not serviced when the parts become loose to the feel, then the parts could fail, resulting in the steering wheel spinning freely. Dealers are to replace the steering gear.

Owners of these vehicles have filed 2,200 complaints in the steering category.
