Defect
On medium-duty trucks, incorrect assembly instructions for the DEF (urea solution) tank mounting bracket result in one of the four fastening bolts not being installed. Continued operation in this condition allows the remaining fastening bolts to loosen and, in the worst case, the DEF tank may detach from the vehicle.
Corrective action
On all vehicles, install and torque the missing DEF tank mounting bracket fastening bolt, and replace all other fastening bolts and nuts on the bracket with new parts.
