Details

What's wrong: Under certain conditions, the snap ring that locates the park gear on the output shaft of the transmission may fracture.

Why it matters: When the gear is placed in park, the park gear would notengage, allowing the truck to roll freely if the parking brake is not properlyset. This could result in an accident.

The fix: Install improved snap ring and revised transmission extension housing.
