Defect

During axle assembly, the lock nut securing the front wheel hub outer bearing may have been insufficiently torqued, and the grease fill quantity in the front wheel hub outer bearing and hub body may be insufficient. The resulting under-torque condition or inadequate lubrication causes the bearing to overheat and suffer 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 and replace it with a new unit if damage is found. Refill grease to the newly specified quantity. Retorque the lock nut at the affected location using the correct procedure specified in the service manual.
