A steering column assembly for an autonomous or semi-autonomous vehicle includes a steering wheel and an upper steering shaft rigidly coupled to the steering wheel. Also included is a lower steering shaft operatively coupled to the upper steering shaft. Further included is a ball coupling assembly comprising balls retained within the upper steering shaft, the balls disposed in a first radial position that engages the balls with the upper steering shaft and the lower steering shaft to place the steering shafts in a coupled condition, the balls disposed in a second radial position that disengages the balls from at least one of the upper steering shaft and the lower steering shaft to place the steering shafts in a decoupled condition.
