  1. B11E02 · steering box mating surfaces contaminated with anti-corrosion paint

    29 Dec 2025 · R/2026/003

    During anti-corrosion treatment the steering box mounting surfaces were not adequately masked. As a result anti-corrosion paint contaminated the mating surfaces leading to insufficient metal-to-metal contact when the steering box was installed. This can cause the steering box to loosen over time potentially affecting steering control.

    Fix: Removed anti corrosion paint from mating surfaces.
