Recall 2004428

The issue

On certain vehicles, bolt holes located on the earwork of the drive shaft male yoke were manufactured with an oversized thread diameter. This condition allows the bolts used in the holes to become detached which, in turn, could result in driveline separation. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the male shaft yoke subassembly.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, des trous de boulon situés sur la branche de la fourche mâle de l'arbre de transmission ont un diamètre de filetage trop grand. Cette erreur de fabrication permet aux boulons de tomber, ce qui pourrait provoquer le détachement de l'arbre de transmission. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront effectuer les réparations nécessaires.
