Issue

On certain trucks, the fastener which secures the steering drag link arm to the knuckle may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. This could allow the drag link arm to disconnect, which could result in a loss of steering capability. A loss of steering control could result in a crash causing property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will tighten the drag link arm fastener to specifications.
