Service bulletin 34 13 13 2028650

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

Customer states constant howling, droning, or scraping noises heard from the front of the vehicle when accelerating lightly. The ball bearing for the left flange shaft spins in the gearbox housing because of a gap between the outer bearing ring and the support bracket. This can result in grinding marks and swarf (Figure 1, Figure 2).
