DEATH_AWAITS_YOU Posted July 28, 2011 Share Posted July 28, 2011 The steering column disconnected internally as in the Recall relating to a circlip coming loose. Any others with knowledge and or experience of this defect? Thanks. Al Colorado USA Safety Recall ALF: "The construction of the steering shaft is such that the snap ring on the shaft may disengage when the vehicle experiences an unusually severe impact to the front wheels (for example, striking a deep pothole in the roadway). If the snap ring becomes disengaged and the steering wheel is then repeatedly turned to the full locked position, over time the steering shaft may become disconnected which could result in a loss of steering control." I have performed a number of these. You should have had yours done already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
