The issue
THE BOLT ATTACHJING THE PITMAN ARM TO THE STEERING GEAR SHAFT MAY HAVE BEEN INSUFFICIENTLY TORQUED. IN ADDITION, THE RETAINING SET SCREWS MAY NOT HAVE BEEN INSTALLED OR WERE NOT FULLY SEATED. THESE CONDITIONS WOULD CAUSE THE PITMAN ARM TO SEPARATE FROM THE SHAFT AND RESULT IN LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL.
