Issue

In the steering system, the geometry of the steering gear box at the steering yoke coupling is improperly designed, which may cause play to develop at that junction. If use continues in this condition, the steering yoke will wear. In the worst case, steering control may be lost entirely.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the steering gear box with a corrected/revised part and replace the steering yoke with a new part.
