What NHTSA recorded

These steering wheels and include a universal joint which is attached to steering shafts and secured by locking bolts. The universal joint's upper locking bolt was not sufficiently torqued during manufacture, and can eventually loosen.

Possible consequence

If the upper locking bolt holding the steering assembly's universal joint loosens, it can render the steering system inoperative and cause an accident.

Remedy

Dealers will remove the present universal upper locking bolt, install a new one, and torque it to specifications.
