On certain vehicles, the height control valve lever attached to the radius rod of the independent front suspension may have been fastened without using lock washers. The lever may loosen over time, resulting in improper suspension height adjustment and possible loss of vehicle control. Correction: Two lock washers will be installed on the U-bolt retaining the height control valve lever.
