On certain vehicles, the s-cam on the front drive axles may experience interference with the knuckle stud as the brake lining wears. This would prevent the s-cam from rotating through its full range of motion thereby restricting the amount of braking force transmitted from the brake shoe linings to the brake drums. Correction: Interfering knuckle studs will be shortened.
A failure of this component (brakes) may increase the risk of a crash or injury.

DEFECT: THE CASTLE NUTS ON THE BALL STUDS OF THE TIE ROD ENDS MAY NOT BE TIGHTENED TO ROCKWELL'S SPECIFIED TORQUE. EXCESSIVELY LOW TORQUE MAY ALLOW MOVEMENT BETWEEN THE BALL STUD AND THE TIE ROD ARM WHICH MAY DAMAGE THESE MATING PARTS AND POTENTIALLY AFFECT THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO STEER THE VEHICLE RESULTING IN A POSSIBLE CRASH. CORRECTION: AFFECTED AXLES WILL BE INSPECTED AND EITHER RETORQUED OR REPLACED AS REQUIRED.

THE TURBOCHARGER COMPRESSOR BACKPLATE RETAINING FASTENERS MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY TORQUED. SHOULD THESE FASTENERS COME LOOSE, OIL COULD LEAK INTO THE COMPRESSOR AIR SIDE OF THE TURBOCHARGER. THE GREAT QUANTITY OF OIL ENTERING THE TURBOCHARGER COMPRESSOR THROUGH A PATH CREATED BY BACKPLATE FASTENER LOOSENING COUPLED WITH HEAT PRECIPITATED BY THE COMPRESSOR AND THE MIXING ACTION OF THE COMPRESSOR WHEEL, MAY RESULT IN AN AIR/OIL MIXTURE THAT FUELS THE ENGINE. THIS COULD RESULT IN ENGINE RUN-ON, SUBSEQUENT LOSS OF OPERATOR THROTTLE CONTROL AND A POSSIBLE CRASH. CORRECTION: SUSPECT TURBOCHARGERS WILL BE REPLACED WITH A NEW TURBOCHARGER.
