If the hydraulic power steering hose detaches, the driver will still have manual steering functionality, but increased steering effort will be needed, particularly at low speeds. Sudden loss of power steering assist as well as the loss of hydraulic steering fluid to the road surface may increase the risk of a crash.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10185508-0001.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2021/MC-10185508-9999.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10185508","components":[{"id":"steering","name":"Steering","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"COACHMEN","model":"GALLERIA","year_from":2018,"year_to":2021,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"COACHMEN","model":"PRISM","year_from":2018,"year_to":2021,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"DYNAMAX","model":"ISATA","year_from":2020,"year_to":2020,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"FOREST RIVER","model":"FORESTER","year_from":2018,"year_to":2021,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]},{"make":"FOREST RIVER","model":"SUNSEEKER","year_from":2018,"year_to":2021,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
