Details

On certain vehicles, the steering assembly tie rod seals do not seal properly.

If moisture and/or dust particles enter the swivel bearing mechanism, the swivel bearing may wear over time to a point where the steering begins to feel "loose" and could diminish the steering control of the vehicle with the potential for a vehicle crash.

Correction: Tie rods will be replaced on affected vehicles.
