STEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLY
What Happened
The tie rod assembly is a critical part of your vehicle's steering system - it helps connect your steering wheel to your wheels. In some cases, the outer ball joint in this assembly might deform and loosen over time, especially when driving under heavy loads.
Risk if Unfixed
If the outer ball joint fails, you might notice that your vehicle becomes harder to steer, increasing the risk of a crash, especially when driving on uneven roads or in tight spaces.
Free Fix
Your Volvo dealer will replace the faulty outer ball joint tie rods with improved ones at no cost to you. You should schedule the repair as soon as possible and have your vehicle back on the road safely.
