|---|---|
| Type | Statutory Recall (government-mandated recall) |
| Date filed | May 30, 2013 |

| Component | Suspension arm/rod |
| Production period | August 31, 2000 — October 29, 2012 |
| Vehicles affected | 383 units |
Defect
On trucks equipped with air spring suspension, the sway bar link connecting the rear axle to the frame has insufficient strength. Repeated sharp turns can cause a crack to form in the link arm. Continued use allows the crack to propagate until, in the worst case, the arm fractures and vehicle stability is compromised.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the sway bar link with the corrected part.
