Defect Summary

The involved vehicles may contain a poor quality or an insufficient weld of the brake group mounting flanges to the axle housing. This could lead to the flange breaking loose from the housing, allowing the brake group to turn with the brake drum on brake application. This will cut the brake lines to the brake group and may cause partial loss of braking capability.

Corrective Action

Dealer will reweld the brake flanges correctly, without charge to owner.
