What is wrong
The intermediate steering shaft was assembled with loose or missing upper and lower pinch bolts which may cause separation of the shaft.
The risk
Separation of the intermediate steering shaft results in total loss of steering control and could cause an accident.
The fix
Dealers will properly torque loose pinch bolts and install pinch bolts where necessary.
