Defect
The torque rod mounting bracket on the front axle suspension has insufficient strength. Repeated braking loads cause cracks to develop in the bracket mounting area. Continued operation allows the cracks to propagate and, in the worst case, the bracket may detach, rendering the vehicle unable to be driven.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, reinforcement is added to the front axle torque rod bracket mounting area by welding.
