| Description of the problem | Power steering hose is coming loose. It is about halfway off. Numerous reports of the power steering hose coming off completely on facebook group for sprinter camper vans. That was the only reason i saw it. Thankfully i was able to fix with a stronger clamp before it came off. When the hose does come loose it results in complete loss of steering. This is a 8,000lb van. Would be a terrible accident if it happened at the wrong time. Link for reference: https://www. Facebook. Com/groups/winnebago4x4/permalink/1587076018139245 |
