What NHTSA recorded
Cracks may develop in the weld area where the mounting bracket that attaches the suspension components is welded to the axle. Cracks could eventually result in separation of the bracket.
Remedy
Manufacturer will inspect suspensions at distributor facilities, or other agreed location. If welds are found to be of incorrect size or placement, repairs will be made.
