| 9003029 | 2023-01-09. Service bulletin. STEERING; SUSPENSION; BACK OVER PREVENTION; ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL:AUTOMATIC (ASC); WHEELS; ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. Part Description: Steering Column and Seals. Issue Description: If the customer complains of a steering column squeak when turning the wheel in low speed maneuvers (parking lot, driveway) in cold weather, the following inspection procedure will assist in preventing a misdiagnosis.~ Inspect the suspension front coil spring to isolators.
