The defect
Due to insufficient strength of the rear axle shaft flange, a crack may develop at the neck of the flange if the vehicle is operated in certain driving conditions, such as repeated high speed driving on winding mountain roads. If the vehicle continues to be operated in this condition, the crack may expand and in the worst case, the flange could fracture causing wheel separation.
The hazard
Death or injury.
