Engineering has made the following revisions and recommendations for eliminating the customer concern
1. Verify that the vehicle has upgraded software for the Electronic Power Steering (EPS) - calibration P/N 25883852 or later.
2. To reduce steering column noise refer to and perform Corporate Bulletin Number 07-03-08-004 - Rattle Noise in Front of Vehicle While Driving
Over Rough Road Surfaces (Replace Both Front Lower Control Arm Rear Bushings).
3. Refer to revised SI diagnostics and service procedures along with improved Tech 2(R) assisted steering column alignment procedures (when
moving steering fully extended from right to left).
Engineering is satisfied with the data that was collected and requires no further responses on this issue.
