    NHTSA 81V068000 Reported 59 vehicles potentially affected OSHKOSH TRUCK CORPORATION

    The locking bolt that engages the steering gear shaft groove does not perform adequately. The potential exists for the pitman arm to slide away from the steering gear shaft.

    Remedy: All vehicles will be inspected as soon as possible to assure that the pitman arm locking bolt properly secures the pitman shaft groove. If not, the proper adjustments will be made at no charge to owner.

    Model years: 1979, 1980, 1981
