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.
