What NHTSA recorded

The left brake slack adjuster and the steering pitman arm may interfere with each other during a sharp right turn with the brakes applied. The interference may restrict the movement of the steering linkage or the air chamber push rod in the left front brake, depending on the circumstances.

Remedy

The dealer will modify placement of the left hand brake air chamber at no cost to owner. The modification will be accomplished by installing new brake camshaft mounting brackets and backing plates on both left and right front brakes.
