Details

Vehicles located in the high corrosion provinces east of the Manitoba/Ontario border.

Certain vehicles may exhibit a condition in which the frame/cradle retainer bolts pull through the retainers due to corrosion of the retainer.

If both front bolts or both rear bolts pull through, the frame/cradle would not be properly supported and the intermediate steering shaft may separate from the steering gear.

If this were to occur while the vehicle was in motion, a vehicle crash could result without prior warning.

Correction: Dealers will replace the front and rear frame/cradle bolts and retainers.

Note: This recall superceedes TC recall 1995-010.
