ON CERTAIN DRY FREIGHT VANS EQUIPPED WITH STEMCO PRO-TORQ AXLE NUT SYSTEM, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT WHEELS CAN SEPARATE DUE TO IMPROPER INSTALLATION OR FAILURE OF THE LOCK RING PROVIDED WITH THE PRO-TORQ AXLE NUT SYSTEM.
WHEELS SEPARATING FROM THE VEHICLE INCREASES THE RISK OF A CRASH.
OWNERS/DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE WHEELS. IF SNAP LOCK RING IS INSTALLED WRONG, IT WILL BE REMOVED AND RE-INSTALLED CORRECTLY. OWNER NOTIFICATION BEGAN JUNE 18, 2002. OWNERS WHO TAKE THEIR VEHICLES TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON AN AGREED UPON SERVICE DATE AND DO NOT RECEIVE THE FREE REMEDY WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME SHOULD CONTACT STRICK AT 1-260-692-6121.
