Bulletin Summary

"The primary focus of this bulletin is to provide a procedure to follow when diagnosing a customer concern of Torque Steer, defined as a pulling condition to either the left or right when under full acceleration which requires a somewhat greater than standard correction of steering wheel input from the driver to counteract. As part of this diagnosis, it will be necessary to first eliminate two other conditions a customer may misinterpret as torque steer. These are: Steering Pull and Steering Off-Center. This will prevent incorrect or over-repair, both of which can negatively impact customer satisfaction. This bulletin applies only in cases where the original factory equipment wheels, tires, and all suspension components are currently installed and, the outlined condition is confirmed to be present.

About Technical Service Bulletins

A Technical Service Bulletin (TSB) is a document issued by a vehicle manufacturer to its dealers, describing a known issue with a specific vehicle or set of vehicles and the recommended procedure to fix it. Unlike recalls, TSBs are not mandatory and are typically only performed if an owner reports the related issue. However, TSBs can be an indicator of common problems with a vehicle.
