Safety Recall VB8 / NHTSA 19V-812 Electric Power Steering Gear

NOTE: No core return required for this campaign.

Remedy Available

NOTE:  Some vehicles above may have been identified as not involved in this recall and therefore have been excluded from this recall.

Subject

The Electric Power Steering (EPS) gear on about 190 of the above vehicles may have contamination which could cause a short circuit. A short in the control circuit components may result in an intermittent loss of power steering assist which may cause an inconsistent steering effort, especially during lower speed maneuvers.

Alternate Transportation

Dealers should attempt to minimize customer inconvenience by placing the owner in a loaner vehicle if the vehicle must be held overnight.

Parts Information

EPS gear part numbers are specific to the vehicle build plant. Refer to the first digit of the VIN. Order the correct part based on VIN first digit.

Parts Return

No parts return required for this campaign.

Render the recalled EPS gear unusable and discard.

Special Tools

The following special tools are required to perform this repair:

Service Procedure

EPS Gear Removal

1. Position the vehicle on a suitable lift.

2. Place the ignition in the OFF position.

3. Using a steering wheel holder, lock the steering wheel at the 12 o'clock center position to keep it from rotating. This keeps the clockspring in the proper orientation (Figure 1).

4. Open the hood.

5. Disconnect the Intelligent Battery Sensor (IBS) wire harness connector (Figure 2).

6. Remove the M8 negative battery cable eyelet nut (Figure 2).

7. Remove the negative battery cable eyelet and isolate the negative battery cable away from the IBS negative cable terminal (Figure 2).

8. Loosen the M6 battery cable clamp with IBS captive nut (Figure 2).

NOTE: Do not remove the M6 captive nut, doing so may cause the M6 stud on the battery cable clamp with IBS to break (Figure 2).

9. Partially raise the vehicle on an appropriate hoist.

10. Remove and save the front tires and wheels.

11. For 4x2 vehicles, loosen the left outer tie rod end jam nut (Figure 3).

12. Remove and DISCARD the right and left side outer tie rod nuts (Figure 3).

13. Using Special Tool 9360 or equivalent, separate both outer tie rod ends from the steering knuckle arms.

14. For 4x2 vehicles, remove and discard the left outer tie rod end.

NOTE: Removing the left tie rod end will give clearance required to remove the EPS gear from the vehicle.

15. Raise the vehicle completely on the hoist.

16. If Equipped, remove the front skid plate.

17. Remove and DISCARD the steering column intermediate shaft lower pinch bolt (Figure 4).

18. Separate the steering column intermediate shaft from the EPS gear shaft.

19. Disconnect the two electrical connectors located at Electric Power Steering (EPS) gear (Figure 5).  

20. Remove and save the two EPS gear mounting bolts (Figure 6).

21. For 4x2 vehicles, turn the EPS gear steering shaft to the full right turn position.

NOTE: Turning the EPS gear to the full right turn position will give clearance required to remove the EPS gear from the vehicle.

22. Remove the EPS gear then render it unusable and discard.

NOTE: No other vehicle components need to be removed to gain clearance for EPS gear removal.

EPS Gear Installation

1. For 4x2 vehicles, if the tie rod ends are installed on new EPS gear, remove and save the left tie rod end from the new EPS gear.

2. For 4x2 vehicles, turn the new EPS gear steering shaft to the full right turn position.

3. Position the new EPS gear to the front crossmember.

4. Install the two EPS gear mounting bolts and tighten them to 180 N·m + 90° turn (133 ft. lbs. + 90° turn) (Figure 6).

5. Connect the two electrical connectors at EPS gear (Figure 5).

6. For 4x2 vehicles, center the steering gear by turning the EPS gear steering shaft from lock-to-lock, counting the turns. Then turn the steering shaft half the turns that are required to go lock-to-lock.

7. Slide the intermediate shaft onto the EPS gear shaft and install a NEW intermediate shaft pinch bolt. Tighten the pinch bolt to 55 N·m (41 ft. lbs.) (Figure 4).

8. Install the new tie rod ends to the new EPS gear if not already installed.

9. Clean and dry the tie rod end studs and the tapers in the steering knuckle arms. Then install the tie rod ends into the steering knuckles.

10. Install NEW tie rod end to knuckle nuts. Tighten the nuts to 30 N·m + 90° turn (22 ft. lbs. + 90° turn) (Figure 5).

11. If Equipped, remove the front skid plate. Tighten the bolts to 18 N·m (13 ft. lbs.).

12. Partially lower the vehicle from the hoist.

13. Install the front tires and wheels. Tighten the lug nuts to:
    • Coned Nut 176 N·m (130 ft. lbs.).
    • Flanged Nut 190 N·m (140 ft. lbs.).

14. Lower the vehicle from the hoist.

15. Loosen the M6 battery cable clamp with IBS captive nut (Figure 2).

NOTE: Do not remove the M6 captive nut, doing so may cause the M6 stud on the battery cable clamp with IBS to break (Figure 2).

16. Install the negative battery cable eyelet on the IBS M8 stud (Figure 2).

17. Connect the IBS wire harness connector. Make sure there is no stress on the wires (Figure 2).

18. Install and tightening the M8 negative battery cable eyelet nut to 16 N·m (12 ft. lbs.) (Figure 2).

NOTE: The M8 negative battery cable eyelet nut has a higher torque than the M6 battery cable clamp with IBS nut and can break the IBS free if the M6 nut is tightened first.

NOTE: Avoid rotating the IBS during tightening of the M8 nut in order to avoid contact between the wire harness connector receptacle and the battery.

19. Tighten the M6 battery cable clamp with IBS nut to 6 N·m (53 in. lbs.) (Figure 2).

20. Install a battery charger. Verify that the charging rate provides 13.0 to 13.5 volts. Set the battery charger timer (if so equipped) to continuous charge.

NOTE:  Use an accurate stand-alone voltmeter.  The battery charger volt meter may not be sufficiently accurate.  Voltages outside of the specified range will cause an unsuccessful flash.  If voltage reading is too high, apply an electrical load by activating the park or headlamps and/or HVAC blower motor to lower the voltage.

21. Connect the wiTECH micro pod II to the vehicle data link connector.

22. Place the ignition in the “RUN” position.

23. Open the wiTECH 2.0 website.

24. Enter your “User id” and “Password” and your “Dealer Code”, then select “Sign In” at the bottom of the screen. Click “Accept”.

33. Remove the battery charger from the vehicle and close the hood.

34. Place the truck on an alignment rack and set the toe alignment per specifications published in DealerConnect Service Library. Tighten the tie rod end jam nuts to 90 N·m (66 ft. lbs.).

NOTE: Follow the alignment rack manufacturer’s instructions to complete the alignment.

35. Road test the vehicle to verify steering wheel is centered.

36. Return the vehicle to the customer or vehicle inventory.

Completion Reporting and Reimbursement

Claims for vehicles that have been serviced must be submitted on the DealerCONNECT Claim Entry Screen located on the Service tab.   Claims paid will be used by FCA to record recall service completions and provide dealer payments.

Use the following labor operation numbers and time allowances:

Floor Plan Reimbursement represents the vehicle’s average daily allowance (see table below) multiplied by the number of days the vehicle was in dealer inventory and not available for sale.  This reimbursement is limited to the number of days from the date of the stop sale to the date that the remedy was made available.  Note:  If the vehicle was received by your dealership (KZX date) AFTER the stop sale date, you will use the KZX date instead of the stop sale date.  For this Recall, the stop sale was initiated on 11/21/2019 and the remedy was made available on 12/05/2019, therefore, the number of days cannot exceed 14 days.

Add the cost of the recall parts package plus applicable dealer allowance to your claim.

NOTE:  See the Warranty Administration Manual, Recall Claim Processing Section, for complete recall claim processing instructions.
