RJ-0898-0

For the intermediate arm of the steering linkage, the arm shaft does not have sufficient strength and may be bent. If this problem is left unattended, the bearings may break, and in the worst case, the shaft could break, which would make steering impossible.

Case Number: 
RJ-0898-0

Make/model:

Issued: 
Thu, 2002-11-28
Component: 
steering linkage system
Affected: 
372
Correction: 
It will take time to supply the factory approved replacement units, and therefore, as a temporary measure, the arm shaft, the bearings and the thrust washers should be replaced with new ones. Execution of this measure should be prioritized according to vehicle mileage. A permanent measure is going to be carried out as soon as the replacement units are ready for use.
