Affected vehicles
Mitsubishi Fuso 1994–2003
Hazard
In the power transmission system of rear dual-axle drive vehicles, the threaded connection at the input shaft coupling mounting point on the drive shaft side (inter-diff case outer) that connects the propeller shaft has insufficient thread strength. If the threaded portion fractures and the vehicle continues to be operated in this condition, the propeller shaft may disengage from the drive shaft, resulting in loss of driving ability. Note: Final reduction ratio 3.818 or less, FVGVW 25t; FS/FYGVW 21t or more.
