What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the transmissions may contain parts which are not machined to specification. These transmissions could seize and lock the rear wheels while the truck is being operated. This could result in loss of vehicle control and a possible crash without prior warning. Correction: Dealers will inspect the transmission main shaft output torque and of the torque does not meet the specification criteria, the transmission will be replaced.
