The issue
On certain trucks, the steering wheel retaining nut may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. Should the loose nut back off completely, the steering wheel could come off the steering shaft. This could result in a loss of steering control and a crash. Correction: Dealers will torque the nut to specs.
Description (français)
Sur certains camions, l'écrou de retenue du volant pourrait ne pas avoir été serré adéquatement pendant le montage du véhicule. Si l'écrou desserré tombait, le volant pourrait se détacher de l'arbre de direction et causer une perte de contrôle de la direction et un accident. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront serrer l'écrou conformément aux spécifications.
