Recall Notes:
Possibility that steering shaft lower bearing on standard steering can eventually fail when operated under extreme conditions. Failure of lower bearing by itself does not relate to motor vehicle safety. However, in taxicab-police service, which involves both high mileage and unusually high number of turns per mile, continued vehicle operation could result in scoring or grooving of steering shaft with eventual shaft breakage and loss of steering control. (correct by inspecting bearing and shaft and replacing bearing if necessary. )
