Defect
On forklifts, insufficient design evaluation of the turbocharger results in inadequate impeller durability. Continued use under repeated high-engine-load conditions may cause the impeller to fracture and engine output to drop.

Corrective action
On all vehicles, replace the turbocharger with the corrected/revised part.
