Description2015 | RAM | 1500

Issue

On certain vehicles, some rear axle shafts may have been incorrectly heat treated during manufacture at the outboard bearing journal which may cause heat buildup, thermal degradation of nearby wiring circuits, illumination of the ABS warning lamp and noise during operation. If ignored, the axle shaft could fracture, which could cause a wheel to separate from the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will inspect axle shafts, and if necessary, replace the axle assembly.
