Issued June 24, 1999

Hazard description
On certain vehicles equipped with a driveline parking brake, the fasteners that connect the end of the transmission companion flange to the park drum and driveline may loosen. If this is undetected, the fasteners may fatigue and eventually shear off allowing the driveline to separate. Correction: The companion flange fasteners will be inspected for proper torque. If the fasteners are found to be loose they will be replaced. If they are found properly torqued the nuts will be removed, PermaLock added and the nuts will be torqued to specification.
