NHTSA recall 16V406000

What's wrong: The affected vehicles are built on a freightliner custom chassis and have steering boxes that were manufactured using incorrect internal spacers, resulting in premature wear in the connection between the steering wheel and the front axle.

Why it matters: The steering wheel's connection to the front axle could fail resulting in a sudden loss of steering ability, increasing the risk of a crash.

The fix: Tmc will notify owners, and freightliner custom chassis dealers will inspect and replace the steering box if necessary, free of charge. The recall began on June 10, 2016.
