Recall 2007150

The issue

On certain trucks, fasteners that fix the steering column brackets may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. Over time, the fasteners may loosen causing excessive play in the steering column. This could cause the driver to lose steering control and may result in a vehicle crash with injuries or death. Correction: Dealers will tighten the steering column bolts to specs.

Description (français)

Sur certains camions, les dispositifs qui fixent les supports de la colonne de direction pourraient ne pas avoir été adéquatement serrés pendant le montage du véhicule. À la longue, les dispositifs de fixation pourraient se desserrer, ce qui engendrerait un jeu excessif au niveau de la colonne de direction. Le conducteur pourrait alors perdre le contrôle de la direction et causer un accident avec blessés ou pertes de vie. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront serrer les boulons de la colonne direction conformément aux spécifications.
