What NHTSA recorded

The right hand frame rail lower flange could develop cracks due to poor grinding methods at stress points. Consequence of defect: frame failure could occur without warning and could result in loss of control and possibly a crash.

Remedy

Remove and replace frame rail as necessary or ground out and dress to eliminate any stress risers that may develop.
