Overview
| MLIT filing number | 1112350 |
|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | September 22, 2004 |
| Manufacturer(s) | Mitsubishi |
| Component | Wheel bearing |
| Production period | May 21, 2003 — September 2004 |
| Vehicles affected | 33,990 units |
Defect
During axle assembly, the lock nut securing the outer bearing of the front wheel hub may have been tightened incorrectly, and the grease fill quantity in the front wheel hub bore may be insufficient. Inadequate preload or inadequate lubrication causes the bearing to overheat and sustain damage. In the worst case, the vehicle may become inoperable or a vehicle fire may occur.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, inspect the affected bearing. Bearings found to be damaged must be replaced with new units and repacked with grease to the newly specified quantity. The lock nut must be tightened using the correct procedure specified in the service manual.
