Defect: gm is recalling 2,149 my 2009 saturn vue vehicles. some of these vehicles may have been built with an incorrect right and/or left front steering knuckle. as a result of the incorrect knuckle and resulting inadequate clearance, the tie rod ball stud could pull out of, or fracture, the tie rod housing. this could cause the tie rod to separate from the knuckle.
