Steering: hose, piping, and connections

78V1410001,400 vehicles affected

The problem
Improper routing of the "hydroboost" hydraulic system high pressure hose assembly could allow a tubular section to contact the frame side rail. Abrasion from the contact could result, causing a leak in the hose assembly.
The fix
The dealer will reroute "hydroboost" high pressure hose assemblies and any damaged hoses will be replaced.

Steering wheel / handle bar

78V0380009,000 vehicles affected

The problem
An intermediate steering shaft containing a mismatched pot coupling assembly may have been installed on the involved vehicles. This coupling may have an oversized serration diameter. An oversized serration could prevent the coupling from adequately tightening onto the gear or shaft splines.
The fix
The dealer will inspect and, if necessary, install a replacement shaft coupling.
