Steering
- What is wrong
- On certain trucks, the nut used to retain the steering shaft may or may not be a lock nut that has the locking feature. A lock nut is required to provide additional resistance to ensure that the nut does not come loose.
- Risk
- If the nut were to come loose, the steering shaft could potentially separate resulting in loss of steering control which could cause a crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will replace the steering shaft pinch bolts and locknuts free of charge. The recall began on august 24, 2007. Owners may contact volvo trucks at 1‑800‑528‑6586.
