STEERING

Defect

On certain vehicles, the lower steering shaft to steering gear pinch bolt may be "finger loose" or missing. A "finger loose" bolt could continue to loosen and fall out. With the bolt missing, the steering shaft yoke could wear and jump spines on the steering gear shaft causing an off centre steering wheel. Relative movement between the chassis and cab could cause the steering shaft to separate from the steering gear resulting in loss of steering control.

Safety Risk

No risk description available.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect for the presence of a pinch bolt and ensure it is torqued to specification.
