What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: four-wheel, self-propelled, off-road loader equipped with trw 20-edl ball-socket assemblies. Certain of the ball-socket bearings have a below specification case depth and/or hardness which can lead to premature wear out of the socket. These bearings were produced between july 5 and october 3, 1999.

Possible consequence

If this condition occurs, the driver can lose partial control of the right front wheel, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.

Remedy

Dealers will replace the ball-socket assemblies.
