Defect
② The fan shaft gear that drives the engine cooling fan has insufficient strength. Under low-speed operating conditions, the gear resonates, causing wear. Continued use degrades the gear further. In the worst case, gear tooth loss may occur, causing the engine to stall and leaving the vehicle unable to restart.
Corrective action
② Replace the fan shaft gear on all vehicles with a corrected part.
