## What is wrong

THE STEERING DRAG LINK MAY BE TOO CLOSE TO THE LEFT FRONT SPRING BRACKET. IF THE DRAG LINK IS TOO CLOSE, IT CAN LOOSEN THROUGH NORMAL WEAR AND ROTATE SUFFICIENTLY TO CATCH AND HANG\-UP ON THE SPRING BRACKET. THIS COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL AND A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.

CORRECTION: FOUR \(4\) HARDENED WASHERS WILL BE INSTALLED BETWEEN THE STEERING GEAR AND THE FRONT SPRING BRACKET.
