## What is wrong

NOTE: VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH AIRGLIDE 200 REAR SUSPENSION.

DUE TO THE MATERIALS USED IN THE SWAY BAR ARMS AND THE STUDS AS WELL AS THE STUD PLATING, A COMBINATION OF STRESS CORROSION CRACKING AND BENDING FATIGUE CAN OCCUR WHICH COULD CAUSE THE STUD TO FAIL PREMATURELY.  THIS COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND A CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING.

CORRECTION: SWAY BAR ARM ASSEMBLY WILL BE REPLACED WITH ONE OF A DIFFERENT MATERIAL.  THE NEW STUDS WILL HAVE DIFFERENT THREADS AND A DIFFERENT FINISH.
