On certain vehicles, the steering shaft pinch bolt interferes with the convoluted rubber boot that protects it. Over time, a hole may wear into the boot and catch the bolt. If the bolt catches on the hole, the boot may restrict the movement of the steering wheel, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash without warning, which could result in property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealer will affect repairs.
A failure of this component (steering) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.
Authorized dealerships will inspect the vehicle and complete all necessary repairs free of charge (parts and labor).
On certain vehicles, the TRW Model 410M ECU (Electronic Control Unit) can misinterpret particular false wheel speed signals generated from any of the following conditions: An incorrect gap between the sensor and tone ring, a chaffed sensor wire, connector corrosion, sensor vibration or quality of harness and pin-outs. If one of these conditions occurs, the ECU could not distinguish between an actual low friction event on road surface and a low amplitude sensor signal and would activate the ABS brakes, instead of deactivating the ABS in response to a false signal. The driver would experience a hard brake pedal during the middle to end of a braking event and a decrease in deceleration at the end of the stop. The driver may experience an unexpected extended stopping distance, which could result in a collision. The ABS warning indicator light may not come on to warn the driver of a system malfunction. Correction: Dealer will affect repairs. Note: recall superseded by 2004171 and 2004172.

On certain Buses the fitting that connects the double check valve to the rear axle air brake relay valve may break. If the fitting breaks the rear service brakes will cease to operate, resulting in an extended stopping distance, possibly resulting in a collision. Correction: Dealers will install a kit to correct the problem.

On certain vehicles, the TRW tie rod and drag link ball stud ends contain bearings that are below the specified case depth and/or hardness. This can lead to premature wear out and a possible separation of the ball stud from the socket and loss of steering control. Correction: All affected tie rods and drag links with different design ends will be replaced.
