The issue

On certain vehicles the tie rods of the steering assembly may be inadequately sealed to prevent moisture and dust particles from entering the swivel bearing mechanism. If moisture and/or dust particles enter the swivel bearing mechanism, the swivel bearing could wear over time diminishing the steering control of the vehicle. Correction: Dealers will replace the tie rods.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, il se peut que les biellettes de direction ne soient pas étanches et que de l'humidité et de la saleté s'infiltrent dans la rotule du palier. Si c'est le cas, la rotule risque de s'user à la longue, ce qui rendrait la maîtrise de la direction difficile. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront remplacer les biellettes de direction.
