The "module" is actually called the EPS (Electronic Power Steering) Control Unit and is installed in an assembly on top of the steering rack and pinion unit. There are (4) possible variations (with and without Variable Sport Steering and before or after Sept. 2011 build dates).

It's entirely possible that they will just replace the complete steering rack just to be sure it's NOT a mechanical problem instead of only an electronic issue.

It's unlikely that your dealer will have the EPS CU or a new rack and pinion in stock, so the repair time will probably depend more on how long it takes to deliver the parts rather than the time it takes to install them.
