What NHTSA recorded
The pitman arm retaining nut may not have been torqued to manufacturer specifications. This could result in inadequate retention of the nut at the output shaft, allowing the pitman arm to become loose.
Remedy
Dealer will inspect and retorque pitman arm, if necessary, at no cost to owner.
