What NHTSA recorded

Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks equipped with a 1710 drive line and a 12 x 4 hydraulic parking brake. If the brake drum or transmission yoke are not fully seated when the eight bolts are installed connecting the 3-piece joint, the bolts can loosen.

Possible consequence

Bolts will eventually work out or shear resulting in drum and drive shaft separation.

Remedy

Dealers will inspect the torque of these bolts and re-torque to specification.
