On certain C1500, TAhoe and Yukon vehicles, the rear brake front pipe may contact the the left front fender wheelhouse inner panel just above the chassis frame. This could eventually wear a hole in the brake pipe which would result in brake fluid loss and reduced braking effectiveness. Correction: Rear brake pipe positioning clip will be relocated, brake pipe will be inspected for wear and replaced if necessary.
On certain vehicles, the lower steering shaft to steering gear pinch bolt may be "finger loose" or missing. A "finger loose" bolt could continue to loosen and fall out. With the bolt missing, the steering shaft yoke could wear and jump spines on the steering gear shaft causing an off centre steering wheel. Relative movement between the chassis and cab could cause the steering shaft to separate from the steering gear resulting in loss of steering control. Correction: Dealers will inspect for the presence of a pinch bolt and ensure it is torqued to specification.
