On certain trucks equipped with 8,000 pound front axles, the front spindle nut may be over-tightened causing preload on the front wheel bearings which may lead to premature bearing wear. If allowed to progress, the front wheel assembly may separate from the vehicle which could result in a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect the front wheel bearing adjustment and correct as required.
