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

The automaker said in a June 28 recall report filed to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration that the Mustangs at risk of experiencing the unintentional steering wheel turning belonged to the 2022-2023 model years.

The recalled vehicles were built between September 15, 2022, and April 5, 2023.
