| Defect Summary | On certain extended cab, 5 passenger sport trucks fitted with a brake upgrade, the wheel bearing c-clip may have been improperly installed. the wheel hub can become loose in the spindle and will force the rotor to contact the brake pad. | |||||||||||||||
| Consequence Summary | The bracket holding on the brake caliper could potentially fail, resulting in the rotating assembly (wheel, tire, hub and rotor) to separate from the vehicle increasing the risk of a crash. | |||||||||||||||
