- Campaign number: 2003141

- Reported: 2003\-05\-27

- Notification type: Safety Mfr

## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the intermediate steering shaft yoke may not have been properly seated onto the steering gear input shaft during installation.  In this condition, the yoke may not be properly clamped to the input shaft.  This may result in separation of the yoke from the steering gear input shaft and a loss of steering control, potentially resulting in a vehicle crash.  Correction:  Dealer will inspect the steering intermediate shaft yoke.  If the yoke is not fully seated and the bolt groove and spline is visible, the intermediate shaft and bolt will be replaced as well as the bolt at the steering column connection.
