Recall 1986132

The issue

On certain vehicles, improper torque of the clamp pinch bolt securing the upper steering shaft to the lower steering shaft may allow the clamp to loosen and the shafts to separate. This would result in loss of vehicle control and possible crash without prior warning. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replace as necessary the clamp assembly and the upper steering shaft.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, le boulon de pincement de la bride qui retient les arbres inférieur et supérieur de la direction ensemble est mal serré et les arbres risquent de se séparer; dans ce cas, la direction perd toute efficacité, ce qui risque de provoquer un accident.
