What NHTSA recorded

The pitman arm pinch bolt which holds the pitman arm to the steering gear output shaft may not have been tightened to the correct specifications. As a result sufficient clamp force will not be maintained and the long life and high mileage integrity of the steering joint may be degraded.

Remedy

Dealer will tighten the pinch bolt to specifications at no cost to owner.
