On certain vehicles, the castellated nut and cotter pin on the steer axle may not have been tightened to specification. This could cause the tie rod to become loose in the steer axle, which would result in audible noise and/or looseness in steering. If the vehicle were continued to be operated in this condition, the tie rod could disconnect from the knuckle, resulting in a complete loss of control of a vehicle wheel, which would increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the torque of the castellated nuts on the tie rod, and replace the tie rod stud and knuckle as necessary.
On certain vehicles, the cap nut that retains the interaxle driveshaft yoke to the rear axle input shaft may prematurely loosen. If the nut were to loosen and come off, the yoke could separate from the axle input shaft and cause the drive shaft to disconnect. A disconnected drive shaft would result in a loss of motive power, and create a road hazard, both of which could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect the torque on the cap nut, and the nut will be replaced if the torque is found under specification. Note: This is an expansion of recall 2016-079.
On certain vehicles, The chassis electrical harness and air brake lines may not have been properly secured at the crossmember. This could cause the electrical cables and air lines to fall down and get twisted in the driveline. This could affect safety systems such as brakes, increasing stopping distances or causing unintended parking brake application. This could increase the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect and repair the vehicle as needed.
