Issue
Hazard description
On certain vehicles, the front axle wheel bearing nut adjustment and retention assembly may (1) restrict complete lubrication fill at assembly and/or (2) shear the spindle nut pack washer's locking tab when tightened. If the washer tab is sheared, tightening of the outer spindle nut may cause the bearings to be excessively preloaded. This could result in premature bearing failure. Correction: Front axles will be fitted with (1) a redesigned bendable lock washer that facilitates lubrication fill, (2) a redesigned perforated washer that will not shear when the spindle nuts are tightened and, (3) new bearings, seals, etc.
