Dana Commercial Driveshafts: Power train — driveshaft

The hazard

If the welded bond fails and results in a loss of torque to the rear wheels, the vehicle operator may be unable to move the vehicle, or may experience deceleration if the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a vehicle crash.

What to do

Dana has notified owners, and dealers have inspected all units and replaced those that showed signs of welding issues, free of charge. The recall began in September 2014. Owners may contact Dana customer service at 1-419-887-3000.
