Reported risk: Certain 4x2 pickup truck convertibles equipped with V6 engines (built from November 1988 - June 1990) and 4x2 pickup trucks equipped with the Shelby package (built October 1988 - June 1989). The frame can crack at the steering gear attachment and/or the steering gear mounting bolts can fracture. The steering gear can separate from the vehicle frame resulting in a loss of vehicle control increasing the potential for a vehicle accident. Correction: Dealers will add reinforcements to the frame and replace the steering gear mounting bolts. If the frame is already cracked, the steering gear weld nuts will also be replaced.
