The problem
THE U SHAPED BOLTS THAT CONNECT THE SPRINGS AND SPRING SPACERS TO THE FRONT AXLE MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED PROPERLY. THIS CONDITION COULD ALLOW THE AXLE TO SHIFT AND COULD DEGRADE THE STEERING CHARACTERISTICS OF THE VEHICLE.
What owners should do
THE DEALER WILL INSPECT AND REPLACE DAMAGED NUTS OR U BOLTS, OR TIGHTEN THE BOLTS AND NUTS TO SPECIFICATIONS. IT MAY BE NECESSARY TO INSERT ADDITIONAL SPACERS IN THE SPRINGS.
