What this means for you

Our assessment, not the agency’s: severity 4/5 (Severe).

The hazard poses a serious risk of illness, injury, or structural failure. Stop using the product immediately and contact the manufacturer for a refund or repair.

Our severity reasoning: A steering defect that can turn the wheel against the driver's input and cause loss of control is a structural vehicle defect, which the rubric places at Severe.
