The issue
On certain Volvo 244 and 245, a nut which joins the wheel spindle and a ball joint in the front suspension may be undertorqued. This could cause the ball joint and suspension strut to separate from each other and vehicle control would be adversely affected. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected for proper ball joint attachment and ball joint assembly will be replaced if necessary.
Description (français)
Sur certaines Volvo 244 et 245, un écrou qui relie l'axe de roue et un joint à rotule dans la suspension avant peut ne pas être serré à un couple suffisant. Cela peut amener le joint à rotule à se séparer du montant de la suspension ce qui peut nuire au comportement routier du véhicule.
