2016 VOLVO VNLTransport Canada Recall #2015561
The official notice
Defect
On certain vehicles manufactured with a 2-piece steering shaft, the bolt torque on the joint that couples the upper and lower steering shaft could be lower than specification. This could cause the bolt to loosen, which may result in separation of the two shafts. Separation of the two shafts would result in complete loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property.
Safety Risk
No risk description available.
Remedy
Instructions will be sent to owners advising them to tighten the bolt as an interim measure. Dealers will inspect the steering shaft, and affect repairs as necessary.
