Condition
Some customers may comment that the steering column upper tilt position feels loose.
Cause
The cause of this condition may be due to a change that was made with the start of 2004 production, where the upper most tilt position was eliminated.
However, the steering wheel will still travel upward until it contacts an internal bumper stop. This travel results in a loose feel or that the steering wheel
will not lock in the top tilt position.
