A failure of the steering system may result in loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Manufacturer remedy

S&S Truck will notify owners, and dealers will replace the DLAs, free of charge. The recall began in June 2014. Owners may contact S&S Truck customer service at 1-800-621-1553.
