On certain vehicles equipped with optional camper and spring overload package, the rear axle retaining u-bolts could lose clamp load due to a soft joint at the upper spring plate. This could result in displacement of the rear axle and a loss of vehicle control. Correction: Spring spacer plates will be removed and the spring plates will be replaced.
