- Campaign:
- 97V142000 on 08/28/1997
- Component:
- Steering:gear box (other than rack and pinion)
- Manufactured:
- 03/31/1997 - 08/14/1997
- Affected:
- 3,957
- Defect:
- Vehicle description: light duty extended-cab pickup trucks and 4-door utility trucks. the lower steering shaft to steering gear pinch bolt is "finger loose" or missing allowing the bolt to loosen and fall out. the steering shaft yoke can wear causing an off center steering wheel.
- Consequence:
- Relative movement between the chassis and cab can cause the steering shaft to separate from the steering gear. this condition can result in a loss of steering control increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.
- Correction:
- Dealers are arranging to have the vehicles involved towed to the dealership and alternate transportation is being arranged for owners. dealers will then inspect the vehicle for the presence of a pinch bolt and torque this bolt to proper specifications.
- Notes:
- Owner notification began august 20, 1997. owners who have not been contacted by their dealer should contact chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or gmc at 1-800-462-8782 as soon as possible.also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
