What’s wrong with it?
IF THE CONTACT IS SEVERE ENOUGH, THE STEERING GEAR INPUT SHAFT COULD CRACK RESULTING IN POTENTIAL FAILURE FOLLOWED BY LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND POSSIBLE VEHICLE CRASH.
THE TILT CAB, WHEN RAISED TO ITS FULLEST UP POSITION, CAN CAUSE THE STEERING SHAFT TO BIND AGAINST THE STEERING GEAR.

What the record doesn’t say
- NHTSA’s recall file doesn’t say whether anyone was hurt.
- Whether one vehicle or seat has been fixed: only its maker, or NHTSA’s lookup with a VIN, can say.
- This recall names only model years before 2015, which have no pages here. Your VIN, at NHTSA, says which recalls are open on a vehicle.
- How many have been returned or fixed isn’t in the notice.
