What NHTSA recorded

The hex nuts fastened to the spring u-bolts may not have been adequately tightened at the time of vehicle manufacture. This could lead to a failure or breakage of the spring which would allow the axle to slip from the proper position.

Remedy

Upon inspection, belleville lock washers and lock nuts will be installed and tightened to the correct specifications, without charge.
