The defect

The cab front mounts may crack and lose their ability to hold the cab firmly to its frame mounts. Such a failure could allow the front of the cab to move vertically when encountering rough road surfaces. In extreme situations, the cab could rise to the extent that the lower steering shaft could become disengaged.

The remedy

Dealer will install redesigned left and right hand cab support assemblies and longer, lower steering shafts, at no cost to owner.
