## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the power steering system may fail due to the loss of power steering fluid.  A fitting on the high\-pressure power steering line at the connection to the pump may not have been sufficiently torqued during the production process.  Over time this may result in the fitting backing\-off which could cause a loss of power steering fluid.  A loss of power steering could result in a vehicle crash.  Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, tighten the connection fitting.  The O\-ring seal will be replaced as a precautionary measure in all cases where the connection fitting shows evidence of loosening.
