L’écrou de fixation du volant peut se desserrer, ce qui peut provoquer des vibrations anormales et un jeu excessif au niveau du volant. Si l’on continue à utiliser le véhicule dans cet état, il se peut que l’écrou tombe et que le volant se détache de la colonne de direction. Il se pourrait alors que le conducteur perde la maîtrise du véhicule et soit victime d’un accident.Correction : L’écrou de fixation du volant devra être resserré sur les véhicules visés.
