On certain trucks, the tilt locking mechanism on the steering column may disengage, preventing the steering column from locking into predetermined positions. Should the locking mechanism disengage, the tilting travel of the column would be unrestricted. This could allow the steering wheel to impact the dash and limit the movement of the steering wheel. Correction: Dealers will install a bracket designed to restrain the tilting mechanism and prevent it from disengaging.
