# Service bulletin TSB 18\-2269

A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it. The summary is NHTSA's. The document is the manufacturer's: read it at NHTSA. A bulletin is not a recall, and listing a model year does not mean every vehicle of it is concerned.

## NHTSA's summary

Some 2018 EcoSport vehicles equipped with AWD and built on or before 12\-Apr\-2018 may exhibit a ratcheting/clicking type noise from the driveshaft area when reversing under certain load conditions. This may be due to the front U\-joint on the driveshaft having a high working angle. Follow the Service Procedure steps to correct the condition.
