The defect

The power steering universal shaft assemblies on the involved vehicles contain a revised grease groove location. Consequently, they may not have proper lubrication in the shaft spline area. Due to manufacturing errors, rust may develop and cause shaft seizure.

The remedy

The dealer will inspect and, if necessary, replace the universal steering shaft assembly.
