What NHTSA recorded
At port of entry, a quality overcheck of the differential pinion shaft torque was performed. This check required the removal of the driveshafts. When the driveshafts were reinstalled, the wrong sized nuts were used.
Possible consequence
The nuts can loosen, ultimately causing the disconnection of one or both of the driveshafts resulting in loss of control of the vehicle.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the hardware on the involved vehicles with hardware of the appropriate specifications.
