What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: school buses equipped with power steering. Some of these vehicles were assembled with an incorrect intermediate steering shaft. The overlap in the slip joint is insufficient allowing the steering shaft to separate.

Possible consequence

This could lead to loss of steering, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect the steering shaft and, if necessary, replace the intermediate steering shaft.
