Defect

On the rear-rear axle of certain heavy-duty freight vehicles configured as three-axle, single rear-drive-axle units, the axle has insufficient strength margin for its operating environment, and cracks may develop. Continued use without correction allows the crack to propagate. In the worst case, the axle may fracture.

Corrective action
