"In this condition, the crack may grow over time due to stress created by steering inputs.
"If the crack grows, this can lead to abnormal noise, abnormal steering feel, and additional play in the steering wheel while turning."
If these symptoms occur with your Corolla or Corolla Cross, Toyota says you should contact one of its dealers urgently to organise a free replacement of the steering intermediate shaft.
If the problem goes unaddressed, Toyota warns "the universal joint can break, causing a loss of steering and increasing the risk of a crash".
Toyota says the fix will take approximately 45 minutes, however depending on your dealer's work schedule you may need to make your vehicle available for a longer period of time.
