My car has been on a manufacturer recall since November 3, 2015. Manufacturer recall number fov NHTSA recall number 15V728 recall status : recall incomplete in certain driving situations, the optional pre-collision system (pcs) could interpret a steel road joint or steel plate in the road surface as an obstacle or vehicle in the path of travel and activate. When the system activates, my vehicle's brakes are applied automatically. The system activates brake assist mode, and my front seatbelts may tighten.

Heard rattling noise in steering wheel when making left or right turns. I removed the 2 plastic covers on each side of the steering wheel and then continued to drive in hopes that whatever was loose and rattling would fall out. After about a week of driving, a small aluminum fastener (screw) fell out of the steering apparatus. Approximately 3 weeks later, noticed the same rattling noise that's occurring when turning the steering wheel. Suspect another fastener is loose inside the steering wheel assembly. This fastener has yet to fall out of the steering wheel assembly and continues to move freely inside the steering wheel when making turns. I'm concerned that this metal fastener could cause a short within the steering wheel causing the airbag to deploy or make the steering wheel malfunction. Is this a problem?
