Recall 2006243

The issue

On certain trucks, an improperly seated or missing u-joint snap ring can result in the bearing cup to separate from the slip yoke sub-assembly. The u-joint could then contact the slip yoke casting and eventually cause the ear to fracture. This could result in additional damage to the driveline, the vehicle and any nearby objects. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the driveshafts.

Description (français)

Sur certains camions, une bague de blocage de joint universel manquante ou mal placée pourrait faire en sorte que la cuvette de roulement se détache du sous ensemble de joint coulissant. Le joint universel pourrait ensuite toucher au moulage de joint coulissant et finir par faire fracturer l'oreille. Cela pourrait causer des dommages supplémentaires à l'arbre de transmission, au véhicule et à n'importe quel objet situé à proximité. Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter et, s'il y a lieu, remplacer les arbres de transmission.
