Defect discovered in Ford Mustang that causes steering wheel to turn unintentionally

More than 30,700 Ford Mustangs are being recalled in response to a problem that could cause unintentional turning of their steering wheels, reports FOX Business.

The automaker said in a recall report that the Mustangs at risk of experiencing the unintentional steering wheel turning belonged to the 2022-2023 model years.

"A steering wheel that turns unintentionally can cause a loss of vehicle control and increase the risk of a crash," the recall said.

The problem has not caused any reported injuries or accidents. 

In the recall report, Ford linked the problem to improper calibration of the secondary digital torque sensor in the steering gear that the Michigan-based automaker can fix through a software update.

Ford dealers will do that update for free, the company told FOX Business.
