NHTSA recall 92V015000
Steering · Chrysler (FCA US, LLC)
Details
What's wrong: The zinc plating operation performed on the upper steering column shaft coupling bolt caused hydrogen embrittlement and breakage of the bolt.
Why it matters: Fractures of the upper steering column shaft couplingbolt result in a lack of coupling load on the shaft and loss of steeringcontrol.
The fix: Replace the zinc plated bolt with a phosphate plated bolt.
