Reported risk: On certain emergency vehicles equipped with a TRW steering column, if the shaft is not well aligned with the steering gear input, a side load is induced in the lower shaft bearing which can cause bearing failure. If the lower steering column bearing fails, the bearing race or compression spring could cut into the hollow steering shaft tube and could result in a crash causing personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will replace the steering column.
