Recall 2003085

The issue

On certain vehicles, the upper and lower steering column may be missing a bolt and nut missing. This could cause the steering column to slip out of the mating shaft when the column's adjustment mechanism is used. If this were to happen, steering function would be completely lost. Correction: Dealer will install a bolt and nut if missing. If they are present, dealer will torque to specs.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, on peut avoir omis de poser un boulon et un écrou entre les colonnes de direction supérieure et inférieure; il se peut donc qu'une partie de la colonne sorte de l'arbre d'accouplement quand on règle la longueur de la colonne de direction. Si cela se produit, il y aura perte complète de contrôle de la direction. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront poser le boulon et l'écrou manquants. Si le boulon et l'écrou y sont, ils devront les serrer au couple prescrit.
