The issue

On certain vehicles, some rear axle shafts may have been incorrectly heat treated during manufacture at the outboard bearing journal which may cause heat buildup, thermal degradation of nearby wiring circuits, illumination of the ABS warning lamp and noise during operation. If ignored, the axle shaft could fracture, which could cause a wheel to separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect axle shafts, and if necessary, replace the axle assembly.

Description (français)

Sur certains véhicules, certains arbres de roue arrière pourraient avoir subi un traitement thermique incorrect lors de la fabrication au niveau du tourillon de palier extérieur, ce qui pourrait causer une accumulation de chaleur, une dégradation thermique de circuits de câblage à proximité, l'allumage du voyant du système ABS et la production de bruit au cours de l'exploitation. Si ces signes sont ignorés, l'arbre de roue pourrait se briser, ce qui pourrait causer le détachement d'une roue du véhicule. Cela augmenterait les risques d'accident pouvant entraîner des blessures ou des dommages matériels (ou les deux). Correction : Les concessionnaires devront inspecter les arbres de roue et, au besoin, remplacer l'essieu.
