Complaint Summary
STEERING:GEAR BOX (OTHER THAN RACK AND PINION)
Owner Narrative
I HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES ON MY NEW 2020 CASCADIA. THE POWER STEERING BOX HAD AN EXTERNAL LEAK WHICH RESULTED IN A STEERING WHINE. THE DEALER REPLACED THE STEERING BOX WITH ONLY 24,000 MILES ON THE TRUCK. I ALSO HAD A ROAD CALL INVOLVING A CHECK ENGINE AND STOP ENGINE LIGHT WHICH RESULTED IN A REPLACEMENT OF A CONTROL UNIT AND TEMPERATURE SENSOR. I AM STILL TRYING TO GET REIMBURSED FOR THIS REPAIR SINCE THE TRUCK IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THERE HAS ALSO BEEN A DEF ISSUE CAUSING A LOSS OF POWER
