Defect

On vehicles converted to X-ray units, the vehicle frame has insufficient strength, causing cracks to develop at the lateral rod bracket mounting surface on the right-side frame. Continued use allows the crack to propagate and, in the worst case, the lateral rod may detach, compromising driving stability.

Corrective action

Add a reinforcement plate to the lateral rod mounting area on the right-side frame of all vehicles.
