What is wrong
On certain vehicles, the lower steering shaft pinch bolt may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. As a result, the steering shaft may separate from the steering gear. This could cause a sudden loss of steering control, resulting in a vehicle crash causing personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will tighten the steering shaft pinch bolt.
