What the agency says

The FAA is adopting a new airworthiness directive (AD) for all Airbus SAS Model A350-941 and -1041 airplanes. This AD was prompted by a determination that certain primary flight control actuators have been exposed to mechanical overloads during the acceptance test procedure. This AD requires replacing affected parts with serviceable parts and prohibits the installation of affected parts. The FAA is issuing this AD to address the unsafe condition on these products.
