Ford Motor Co. said Monday that it is recalling 1,100 1995 Mustangs to correct a possible defect in steering system components. Ford said some of the affected cars might have a defective joint between the tie rods and the front wheels. The defect could cause the end of the tie rod to break, causing steering difficulty. Ford said there have been no reports of accidents or injuries related to the defect. The company said 208 of the 1,100 affected cars are in Canada. (AP) TRW team gets contract for simulation center
