## What is wrong

On certain vehicles, the rear spindles may fracture as a result of incorrect heat treat process during vehicle assembly.  Rear spindle failure could allow the wheel, tire, and brake drum assembly to separate from the vehicle.  The wheel end assembly could become a hazard for other traffic.  Correction: Dealers will inspect for the heat treat date code on the end of the rear spindles.  Axle housings will be replaced on vehicles manufactured with spindles that have the subject date codes.
