What is wrong
On certain vehicles, the pinch bolt of the upper steering shaft may not have been tightened to the proper specification. This could lead to a loss of the mechanical connection between the steering wheel and front axle wheels, resulting in a loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facilities will inspect and ensure proper torque of the upper steering shaft pinch bolt. Note: In the interim, owners are advised to stop driving their vehicles until they have been inspected.
