Issue

During vehicle manufacturing, some power steering hydraulic pipes were deformed, causing them to contact the turbocharger cooling water pipes. Continued use in this condition may damage the hydraulic pipe. In the worst case, power steering oil leaks, increasing steering effort.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the hydraulic pipe with the corrected/revised part. Any cooling water pipes found to be damaged are also replaced with new parts.
