Defect

On four-wheel-drive medium-duty trucks configured as fire trucks, refuse trucks, or tank trucks, the snap ring that retains the transfer case output shaft has insufficient strength. Repeated aggressive starts may cause the snap ring to fracture. As a result, the output shaft can pull out of the transfer case, disengaging the spline coupling and cutting drive force to the front axle, leaving the vehicle inoperable.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the complete output shaft assembly, including the snap ring, with a corrected/revised part.
