The issue
THE STEERING SUSPENSION SYSTEM MAY NOT ADEQUATELY DAMP STEERING TYPE WOBBLE (FRONT END SHIMMY) WHICH IS INDUCED BY WHEEL/TIRE ROTATIONAL FORCES AND/OR ROAD CONDITIONS. SEVERE SHIMMY MAY DAMAGE THE VEHICLE FRAME OR STEERING GEAR AND CREATE THE POTENTIAL FOR LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSPECT, MODIFY AND/OR REPLACE, AS NECESSARY, FRONT SUSPENSION AND STEERING COMPONENTS, TIRES AND FRAMES. NOTE: THESE VEHICLES INCLUDE REGULAR, SUPER AND CREW CAB MODELS PRODUCED WITH DUAL REAR WHEELS.
Description (français)
Il se peut que la suspension avant n'absorbe pas complètement le shimmy résultant de la rotation des roues et/ou des conditions de la route. Si le problème de shimmy est grave, le cadre ou la direction peuvent s'endommager. La défectuosité peut éventuellement être la cause d'une perte de maîtrise du véhicule.
