Defect

The power steering pipe is improperly routed, causing it to contact adjacent components. Continued use damages the pipe and, in the worst case, causes a power steering fluid leak, increasing the steering effort required at the wheel.

Corrective action

Reposition the pipe on all vehicles so it does not contact other components. Replace any pipe that has already sustained damage with a conforming unit.
