Defect

Insufficient welding of frame structural components in the chassis frame allows cracks to develop at the weld joints and around the shock absorber mounting bracket. This produces abnormal noise during driving and, in the worst case, the mounting bracket may detach from the chassis frame, compromising vehicle driving stability. Note: This notification adds newly identified vehicles to the recall originally filed on June 13, 2003 as Notification No. 956.

Corrective action

Inspect all vehicles. On units with insufficient welds, perform additional welding. On units where cracks have developed around the shock absorber mounting bracket, repair the cracks.
