No. This is what gets pushed out by the sensor, but what breaks is further up the column. this retainer getting pushed out is a symptom, not the cause.

Of what looks like, now?

It would look just like a hundred other pics of the the general area you are asking about.


It's stuck in a fortunate place, both with the seat placement, as well as steering wheel. I have not had one problem since that happened..

Thanks.

I was going to try to assist you in how to actually fix the SAS being popped out.

FYI, if youre only worried about the sensor hanging thats not the only issue. The cause of the SAS hanging is that a support bearing for the steering column pops out of its carrier and you now only have one bearing holding your steering column up. If you/someone puts a lot of vertical load on the column, I'd be worried on that bearing also being moved out of its mount which will cause your steering wheel to drop.

Got the part through my local dealer, took it to my go to guy for putting in, not the right size for a 2011 which is probably why it doesn’t come up using VIN parts search, apparently not needed for my year after checking TSB’s. Appreciate the help though! Learn something new all the time.

If there's something I've learned about Corvettes is that to diagnose it's either easy or frustrating, no in between.
