Component: Steering
Manufactured by: Ford Motor Company
Affected Units:: 82,000
Possibility failure of rivets used for attaching the front spring rear hanger bracket to the frame. Rivet failure would allow the bracket to separate from the frame imposing severe loads at the front bracket. Should the spring disengage from the front bracket the axle will shift and loss of steering control could result. Also, there is a pos- sibility of misassembly or mis-alignment of certain components in the power steering system. Failure to correct this condition, if present, also could result in loss of steering control. (correct by in- stalling new rivets and power steering components if necessary. )
