The problem
Deficiencies, in the form of forging laps, cracks and excessive decarburization during heat treatment, exist in the steering knuckles. Stresses imposed with integral hydraulic power steering may lead to a failure in the area of the steering arm attaching boss. This type of failure would cause loss of steering control.
The fix
Dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the left steering knuckle with an improved type of knuckle.
