Hazard: Damaged bearings can cause the wheel to separate and result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Tie rod failure can cause a loss of vehicle steering control and increase the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Tie rod failure can cause a loss of vehicle steering control and increase the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Tie rod failure can cause a loss of vehicle steering control and increase the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Steer axle assembly separation can result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Steer axle assembly separation can result in a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Tie rod separation can result in a sudden loss of steering, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: A fractured drive pinion may contact the brake drop hose and unintentionally engage the parking brake, without detection or without activating brake lights, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: A fractured drive pinion may contact the brake drop hose, and unintentionally engage the parking brake without detection or without the brake lights activating, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: A loss of power to the system may cause loss of motive power, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Loss of power steering assist would require a greater steering effort, especially at lower speeds, which may increase the risk of a crash.

Hazard: If the bearings are damaged, the wheel may separate and cause a sudden loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of crash.

Hazard: Fracture of the axle beam can cause a loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: If the bearings are damaged, the wheel may separate and cause a sudden loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of crash.

Hazard: If the drive pin becomes fully fractured, the vehicle may pull to one side while braking, causing a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of crash.

Hazard: If enough of the improperly heat treated studs fail on the same steer axle hub, the wheel may detach, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: If the caliper bolts are improperly torqued and the caliper detaches from the mounting flange, a loss of braking ability would occur, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: A wheel end separation can cause loss of vehicle control, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Bearing failure may increase the risk of a crash.

Hazard: If the front axle was not properly heated treated, it may fracture and a loss of vehicle control may occur, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Brake drag may result in a wheel end fire.

Hazard: If the caliper detaches from the axle flange, braking performance would be reduced, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Without adequate lubrication to the wheel end hub assembly, the bearings may fail prematurely, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: If the castellated nuts are not properly torqued, the tie rod may not be adequately secured, resulting in a loss of vehicle control and increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Weak spots in the axle beam may result in sudden axle failure, increasing the risk of a crash.

Hazard: The misalignment could prevent the pin from engaging. Additionally, the jam nut would not be torqued to specification, creating the potential for wheel separation, which could increase the risk of a crash.

Hazard: Overheated brake components could result in a fire.

Hazard: PROLONGED USE OF THE SYSTEM IN THESE APPLICATIONS CAN RESULT IN THE DEGRADATION OF THE BEARING GREASE, THEREBY POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN A BEARING FAILURE AND SUBSEQUENT WHEEL END FIRE.

Hazard: THIS CONDITION COULD RESULT IN WHEEL SEPARATION, WHICH COULD LEAD TO LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.

Hazard: INSUFFICIENT TORQUE OF THE STEERING ARM BOLTS MAY RESULT IN BOLT FATIGUE AND FRACTURE AND/OR ARM SEPARATION, THEREBY POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
