Consumer Description

I NOTICED MY STEERING COLUMN WAS LOOSE. I PULLED THE LOWER COLUMN COVER OFF AND THE LEFT STEERING COLUMN TILT PIVOT PIN FELL ON THE FLOOR OF THE VEHICLE. I LOOKED AT THE OTHER SIDE OF THE COLUMN, AND THE RIGHT PIVOT PIN WAS HALFWAY OUT. I TAPPED THEM BACK INTO PLACE, AND THEY WENT BACK INTO PLACE EASILY. I HAVE DISCOVERED ANOTHER DRIVER OF THE MAKE AND MODEL WHO HAS TOLD ME THAT HIS PIVOT PINS HAVE FALLEN OUT MORE THAN ONCE. *TR
