The defect

Two of the four bolt-and-washer combinations used to secure the 710 saginaw steering gear to the chassis frame had different washer material thicknesses. This can affect the bolt thread engagement into the steering gear causing loose steering gear bolts.

The risk

This condition can cause loss of steering control increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.

The remedy

Dealers will increase the steering gear bolt hole depth, replace the existing washers and bolts with new flanged-head cap screws installed with loctite.
