## What is wrong

REAR SPRING PLATES MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TEMPERED AND ARE     NOT OF THE PROPER HARDNESS VALUE.                                                                                                                                 CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: THE PLATES COULD CRACK AND/OR BREAK, AFFECT LATERAL       GUIDANCE OF THE REAR WHEEL, AND RESULT IN LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE CAR WHICH MAY   CAUSE AN ACCIDENT.


## The remedy

TEST TO IDENTIFY SPRING PLATES WHICH ARE IMPROPERLY HARDENED  AND REPLACE AS NECESSARY.


## Notes
