THE DIFFERENTIAL OUTPUT SHAFT RETAINING RINGS ON THE REAR SUSPENSION MAY, UNDER EXTREME DRIVING CONDITIONS, BECOME DISPLACED. THIS MAY CAUSE THE OUTPUT SHAFT TO DETACH FROM THE DIFFERENTIAL UNIT WHICH, IN TURN, WILL CAUSE THE REAR SUSPENSION TO COLLAPSE ON THE AFFECTED SIDE. A COLLAPSED SUSPENSION COULD RESULT IN LOSS OF DRIVER CONTROL AND A VEHICLE CRASH. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE RETAINING RINGS AND, IF NECESSARY, RESEAT THE RINGS OR REPLACE THEM.
