THE STEERING SHAFT MAY HAVE INADEQUATE SPLINE ENGAGEMENT IN THE INSTALLED POSITION. FRAME AND CAB ARTICULATION SUCH AS COULD BE EXPERIENCED FROM POTHOLE IMPACTS COULD RESULT IN SHAFT DISENGAGEMENT. THIS WOULD CAUSE IMMEDIATE LOSS OF STEERING AND A POSSIBLE VEHICLE CRASH. rnCORRECTION: VEHICLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND WHERE NECESSARY, STEERING SHAFTS WILL BE REPLACED WITH A LONGER SHAFT. rnNOTE: NO VEHICLES IN CANADA.
