- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2001022

- Reported: 2001\-01\-29
- Component: Steering
- Notification type: Safety Mfr

## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the bulkhead retainer nut within the steering gear may not be properly torqued and the staking operation omitted.  If the bulkhead retainer nut is not properly torqued and staked it may loosen during normal steering gear operation.  Loosening of the nut will initially cause excessive lash in the steering system and may progress to a seized steering gear and the inability to steer the vehicle.  Correction:  Steering gear assembly will be replaced.
