## Discrepancy

ON LANDING, AIRCRAFT EXITED RUNWAY BECAUSE NOSE GEAR STEERING WAS LOST.  NO DAMAGE OR INJURIES.  MECHANIC FOUND STEERING COLLAR ATTACHING FORWARD BOLT SHEARED.  STRUT APPEARED TO BE OVER INFLATED CAUSING BOLT TO SHEAR WHEN TOWED IN THIS CONDITION.  SERVICED STRUT AND REPLACED BOLT.  CHECKED OK.
