The issue
AN INCORRECT PITMAN ARM PINCH BOLT DOES NOT ALLOW THE PROPER CLAMPING FORCE TO BE DEVELOPED ON THE PITMAN SPLINES WHICH MAY THEN WEAR AND IMPACT STEERING. THIS WOULD RESULT IN LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL REPAIR AS NECESSARY.
Description (français)
A cause de l'emploi d'un mauvais boulon de serrage sur la bielle de connexion, une force de serrage insuffisante est exercée sur les cannelures de la bielle; celles-ci peuvent s'user et affecter la direction. Il pourrait en résulter une perte de maîtrise du véhicule.
