Defect

The engine vibration-damping rubber crankshaft pulley is improperly designed, causing the adhesive bond between the pulley body and the rubber damper to peel apart during service. This allows the pulley ring to spin freely or detach entirely, disabling the alternator and causing the engine to stall. In the worst case, the detached ring may become a hazard to other road users.

Corrective action

Inspect the crankshaft pulley on all vehicles; if the pulley is of the adhesive-bonded type, replace it with a corrected part.
