Issue

In the power transmission unit, the third-gear shaft has insufficient strength, which may cause a crack to develop in the shaft. Continued use allows the crack to propagate. In the worst case, the third-gear shaft may fracture, causing the vehicle to coast with no drive force and rendering it unable to move after coming to a stop.

Corrective action

On all vehicles, replace the differential case with a corrected part.
