| Description |
NISSAN DIESEL IS RECALLING CERTAIN MODEL YEAR 2007-2008 UD3300 VEHICLES THAT WERE MODIFIED BY INSTALLING DUAL STEERING CONTROLS FOR USE AS STREET SWEEPERS. THE RIGHT SIDE STEERING DRAG LINK MAY HAVE BEEN INSTALLED INCORRECTLY. |
| Consequences |
INCORRECT INSTALLATION OF THE RIGHT SIDE STEERING DRAG LINK AND/OR IMPROPER ADJUSTMENT OF THE STEERING STOPS COULD ALLOW THE TIRE TO CONTACT THE RIGHT SIDE STEERING DRAG LINK DURING A FULL LEFT TURN. CONTINUED OPERATION WITH THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE CONTACTING THE RIGHT SIDE STEERING DRAG LINK MAY RESULT IN STRUCTURAL WEAKENING AND BENDING OF THE DRAG LINK. THIS COULD RESULT IN A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND/OR CAUSE A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT WARNING TO THE VEHICLE OPERATOR. |
| Corrective action |
