## What is wrong

ONE OF THE THREE STEERING GEAR TO FRAME BOLTS MAY NOT     HAVE BEEN TIGHTENED TO THE REQUIRED SPECIFICATION.                                                                                                                CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: THE STEERING GEAR COULD COME LOOSE FROM THE FRAME         CAUSING A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND A POSSIBLE VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT          WARNING.


## The remedy

TIGHTEN THE STEERING GEAR TO FRAME BOLTS.
