Steering

Nissan is recalling more than 236,000 small cars in the U.S. because the tie rods in front suspension can bend and break, possibly causing drivers to lose steering control.

The recall covers certain Sentra compact cars from the 2020 through 2022 model years.

Tie rods help vehicles move the wheels for steering.

High-tech parts of steering wheel systems, for which Hidria concluded deal worth 60 million euros, will be installed in future vehicle models from Audi, Seat, Skoda and Volkswagen.
