- Published by: Transport Canada \(Canada\)
- Campaign number: 2002170
- Manufacturer's number: 02514
- Reported: 2002\-09\-26
- Component: Steering
- Notification type: Safety Mfr
- Units potentially affected: 86

## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the joint between the lower portion of the steering column and the upper end of the intermediate steering shaft may have a missing or loose pinch bolt.  Although less likely, this condition could also occur at the lower end of the intermediate steering shaft at the steering gear connection.  If a pinch bolt is missing or vibrates loose, the intermediate shaft could separate from the steering column or steering gear, and/or allow relative rotation \(slip\) between the joined shafts.  This would cause a loss of steering control, which could result in a vehicle collision.  Correction:  The dealer will inspect both ends of the intermediate steering shaft to ensure the pinch bolt is installed and/or properly torqued.  If the bolt and nut are missing, new ones will be installed.
