Issue
On certain trucks, the front axle outer wheel bearings may not have been properly heat treated during the manufacturing process. This could cause a bearing to fail, allowing the wheel assembly to separate. A wheel separating from the vehicle could cause a loss of control and a crash. In addition, the errant wheel assembly could strike a vehicle, property, or a bystander. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if necessary, replace the outer wheel bearings.
