DEFECT #1 - SUSPENSION:REAR:SPRINGS:LEAF SPRING ASSEMBLY:U-BOLT, LEAF SPRING TO AXLE


Posted on: 1996-05-09
Description
The four u-bolts nuts on either side of the rear axle were under-torqued.

Consequence
Vehicle usage could cause the nuts to loosen and eventually fall off the u-bolt.  This could result in sudden loss of vehicle control increasing the potential for a vehicle crash.

Corrective Action
Dealers will check the u-bolt nut torque and re-torque any loose u-bolts to specification.

Notes
System: suspension; axle; rear; u-bolt.  Vehicle description: light duty pickup trucks.  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 chevrolet at 1-800-222-1020 or gmc at 1-800-462-8782.  Also contact the national highway traffic safety administration's auto safety hotline at 1-800-424-9393.
