Defect

In the running gear, some rear wheel lock screws — which prevent the wheel bearing nut from loosening — are insufficiently torqued. Driving vibration may cause the lock screw to loosen further, leading to loosening of the wheel bearing nut. In the worst case, the wheel may detach from the vehicle.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, inspect the lock washer and lock screw installation condition. (1) Where abnormal installation is found, check the bearing for damage; replace any damaged bearing with a new part, then tighten the lock screw to the specified torque. (2) Where installation is normal, tighten the lock screw to the specified torque.
