Description of the problem	The steering wheel on my 2014 ford focus se came loose one morning. No indication of looseness in the weeks leading up. The steering wheel just became very wobbly and loose. The ford dealership stated it was not covered under warranty and the comprehensive extended warranty wouldn't cover it either, the issue: a nut that holds the steering wheel to the steering column came loose. According to the technician, there was not much loctight on the bolt. $200 later i have the same nut tightened back down with newly added loctight. Fast forward and on 3/14/2018 ford announced a recall affecting 1. 4 million ford fusions that have this very same issue. Yet i have a focus not a fusion. This issue is not seclusive to just the fusion line up and ford needs to expand their recall to put the same fix in place for all affected models. Perhaps the loctight isn't enough and the focus needs the new aggressive threaded bolt with the nylon nut.
