Reported risk: Issue:
On certain vehicles, the jam nut for the steering stopper bolt on the left-front knuckle may loosen and allow the bolt to back away from the knuckle. This could result in an increase in the turning radius of the vehicle in left turns. A change in turning radius could make it difficult to make sharp turns.
Safety Risk:
If a vehicle's turning radius is increased, there could be an increased risk of a crash.
Corrective Actions:
The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a dealer to replace the jam nuts on the steering stopper bolts. The nuts will be tightened and Loctite will be applied to the nut and bolt. If a bolt is found damaged or missing, the assembly will be replaced.
