The issue
On certain 2500 and 3500 series vans, the nut attaching the pitman arm to the steering linkage may not be torqued to specification, which could lead to a possible separation. A separation could result in loss of vehicle control, and a crash could occur without prior warning. Correction: Dealer will torque the nut to proper specifications.
Description (français)
Sur certaines fourgonnettes des séries 2500 et 3500, il se peut que l'écrou qui retient la bielle pendante à la tringlerie de la direction ne soit pas serré au couple spécifié et que la bielle se détache, ce qui peut entraîner une perte subite de contrôle et causer un accident. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront serrer l'écrou au couple prévu.
