Continued use in this condition may cause the pump or drive shaft to detach from the vehicle.

Corrective action

(1) On all vehicles, add reinforcement to the pump bracket. (2) On all vehicles, replace the center bearing bracket with the corrected part. (3) On vehicles requiring an additional pipe securing stay, install the stay. (4) On all vehicles, inspect the piping for cracks; if cracks are found, perform repair work or replace the piping with new parts.
