A vehicle steering assembly includes a steering column mounting bracket configured to support a steering column and a vehicle body mounting bracket for attachment to the vehicle body. The assembly further includes an apparatus for mounting the steering column in the vehicle. The apparatus includes a body defining a first interface configured to receive a first plurality of fasteners coupling the steering column mounting bracket to the body in a fixed position and side brackets coupled to each side of the body in a manner permitting translational movement of the body relative to the side brackets along a first axis and rotational movement of the body relative to the side brackets about a second axis. The side brackets define a second interface configured to receive a second plurality of fasteners coupling the vehicle body mounting bracket to the side brackets.

Systems and methods are provide for highway vehicle platoon maintenance management. Commercial highway vehicle platoon maintenance management is provided where it is desirable to determine traffic conditions around vehicles of the platoon, to share the determined traffic conditions with the other vehicles of the platoon, and to determine and share adaptive cruise control (ACC) parameters between the platooning vehicles for adjusting platoon inter-vehicle following distances based on the determined traffic conditions.
