Defect
On certain heavy-duty freight vehicles (rear-front single-drive three-axle configuration), the rear-rear axle has insufficient strength margin for its operating environment, and cracks may develop in the axle. Continued operation allows the crack to propagate. In the worst case, the axle may fracture.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the rear-rear axle with a corrected part. In addition, issue usage precautions to vehicle operators.
