DEFECT #1 - STEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLY


Posted on: 2005-02-04
Description
On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks equipped with arvinmeritor urresko tie rod clamps, heat treatment of clamps created a surface hardness that could lead to a fracture of the clamps.  

Consequence
In the event of a crack, the clamps could break off affecting toe-in and alignment.  The tie rod can come loose resulting in steering loss and a crash could occur without prior warning.
