The issue
THE PITMAN ARM, WHICH ATTACHES TO THE STEERING GEAR, MAY NOT MEET THE CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL PROPERTIES SPECIFIED IN THE DESIGN REQUIREMENTS, AND THUS, COULD FAIL. IF THE PITMAN ARM WERE TO FAIL, ALL STEERING CONTROL WOULD BE LOST AND A VEHICLE CRASH COULD OCCUR WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. CORRECTION: PITMAN ARM WILL BE INSPECTED AND REPLACED IF NECESSARY.
Description (français)
La biëlle de connexion rattachée au pignon de direction ne présente pas les propriétés chimiques et physiques précisées dans les exigences de conception et risque par conséquent de céder. Il en résulterait une perte totale de maîtrise de la direction, d'où un risque d'accident.
