    I am driving one of the affected trucks, and it IS NOT all 2016 Volvo's. It only affects certain VIN numbers with 2 piece steering shafts. 4 have come apart, so they are recommending the trucks be taken off the road. I'm leaving my Canadian based truck in Bismarck ND until they get a fix, and will be driving a Volvo piad for rental.

    Did you read my original post I linked to? I attached a photo of the affected dual steering shafts.
