DEFECT #1 - POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE:DIFFERENTIAL UNIT


Posted on: 1997-04-17
Description
Due to a clearance between the oil separator plate and the differential housing of the front differential unit, oil leakage at the air breather plug can occur, when the vehicle is operated continuously above 75 miles per hour.

Consequence
Oil leakage will result in a sufficiently low oil supply to cause bearing damage to the front differential unit leading to eventual seizure of the unit increasing the risk of a crash.

Corrective Action
Dealers will install a modified air breather plug to prevent such oil loss.

Notes
Owner notification:owner notification is expected to begin late-april 1997.  Note:owners who take their vehicles to an authorized dealer on an agreed upon service date and do not receive the free remedy within a reasonable time should contact toyota at 1-800-331-4331.also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
