Details

What's wrong: The fasteners that attach the steering arm or tie rod arms to the spindle may be over or under-tightened.

Why it matters: Incorrectly tightened steering arm fasteners may fatigue and fracture which could cause a crash without warning.

The fix: Coachmen is working with freightliner to repair these vehicles free of charge (please see 07V306).
