1977 MINIBUS MINIBUS Recall Overview: DUE TO THE WEARING DOWN OF THE SERRATIONS OF THE SHELL ASSEMBLY, LOSS OR REDUCTION OF STEERING CONTROL MAY BE EXPERIENCED BY DRIVER. THIS CAN OCCUR WHEN STRAIN IS PUT UPON THE STEERING MECHANISM, SUCH AS WHEN TURNING WHILE STOPPING OR MOVING VERY SLOWLY. WEARING OUT OF SERRATIONS MAY BE CAUSED BY AN IMPROPER FIT BETWEEN THE NECK OF THE SHELL ASSEMBLY AND THE SERRATIONS, OR IMPROPER HEIGHT OF THE STEERING COLUMN CAUSING A BOTTOMING OUT WITHIN THE SHELL ASSEMBLY.

Just What Is a Car Recall? Car Safety Recall Definition - A safety recall is an automotive manufacturer's way of notifying vehicle customers that their product has a flaw. The automobile problem is serious enough that if you do not correct the flaw your and/or your passengers' safety could be at risk. Generally recalls are initiated by the US Government, but sometimes individual car manufacturers will pre-emptively initiate a recall.

Where Do I Find My VIN (Vehicle Identification Number)? Look on the lower left of your car’s windshield for your 17-digit Vehicle Identification Number (VIN). Your VIN is also located on your car’s registration card, and it may be shown on your insurance card.
