Ford (F) is recalling nearly 1.4 million midsize cars in North America because the steering wheel can detach from the steering column and drivers could lose control. The auto manufacturer found that two of their manufacturing plants rolled out vehicles with loose steering wheels. The problem is so bad that Ford is warning drivers their steering wheels could come off while customers are on the road.

The recall was issued on Wednesday, March 14, and covers certain versions of the Ford Fusion and Lincoln MKZ cars from the 2014 through 2018 model years. The steering wheel issue affects 2014-17 Ford Fusions made at the Flat Rock Assembly Plant in Michigan from Aug. 6, 2013 to Feb. 29, 2016. The recall also affects the Hermosillo Assembly Plant in Mexico where 2014-2018 Fusions and Lincoln MKZs were assembled from July 25, 2013 to March 5, 2018.

This will be the thread where Toyota lovers pretend that Toyotas didn't have a recall for stuck gas pedals that killed people.

Was it ever proven? Because I don't remember it ever being replicated.

Toyota paid a $1.2 billion settlement to end the probe. I'm sure it was nothing.

I would die of a heart attack before I crashed into a ravine.

Yota had a big airbag problem too

Well you're gonna die.
Slowly, very slowly, use the emergency brake. It is rear only and help keep the vehicle straight.
