What NHTSA recorded

Incorrect inner wheel bearings were installed in the rear axles which wears a groove in the spindle due to a poor fit. Consequence of defect: a deep groove could cause the axle housing to break and result in a vehicle crash without prior warning.

Remedy

Replace inner wheel bearing with correct bearing. Also, if a groove is present, remove the groove and assure that no cracks are present. Replace housing if cracked.
