Default Steering wheel is loose. Easy fix?

Today my steering wheel became loose on my 3.0 Xtype. Can I fix this myself? If so, how do I accomplish this?

Anyone else have this problem?

Thank you in advance

We'll need more info. What do you mean by loose? Does it turn but wheels don't? Does it pull in and out, wobble in your hands? It doesn't sound good to have a loose steering wheel. Please give a detailed description of what exactly is going on.

Loose as in there was a lot of play in the steering wheel. I took to the garage and they tightened a nut and put loctite on it to keep it from coming lose again, problem fixed. 1 hr labor $85.00.
