A steering column having a mounting bracket and a self-loosening capsule assembly configured for attachment to an adjacent vehicle component is provided. The mounting bracket includes an installation slot, a flange extending within the installation slot and a bracket keying mechanism positioned at a periphery of the installation slot. The self-loosening capsule assembly is received in the installation slot, and includes a capsule and capsule nut. The capsule includes a head and a body extending from the head, the body having a threaded outer surface, the head having a larger outer diameter than the body. The capsule nut includes a threaded inner surface for threaded coupling to the capsule and is movable so as to apply a first clamping force to the flange of the mounting bracket between the head and the capsule nut and a keying mechanism configured to interface with the bracket keying mechanism. |
