STEERING:LINKAGES:DRAG:LINK:CONNECTION
Drag link separation can cause a complete loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
Complaints are reports from owners of this model year, not findings about any particular vehicle, and a model that sold in large numbers will collect more of them. They are counted here as filed; nothing is inferred from them.
Drag link separation can cause a complete loss of steering control, increasing the risk of a crash.
If the screws are not long enough to engage the corresponding nuts, the hardware may separate from the suspension system, becoming a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash and/or injury.
The vehicle's rearward visibility may be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.
Two 2020 FREIGHTLINER 122SDs can have entirely different histories, and a recall campaign usually covers a build-date window rather than a whole model year — which a VIN does not encode, so only the door-jamb label settles it. Scanning the VIN adds the decode, the crash tests, the fuel economy and the complaints matched to that exact engine, trim and assembly plant.
