Issue

On certain trucks, the front and/or rear suspension transverse control arm may contain an out of specification weld. Under severe driving conditions this control arm may fail causing a separation of the control arm from the suspension and result in a loss of vehicle control. The loss of the vehicle control may result in a crash causing property damage, personal injury or death. Correction: Dealers will inspect and replaced affected transverse control arms.
