On certain pickup trucks, the transfer case to transmission attaching fasteners may be below the specified torque. This may cause the transmission adapter or transfer case housing to crack and leak fluid. Continued vehicle operation can result in propeller shaft separation and damage to fuel system components, possibly resulting in an underbody vehicle fire. Correction: Dealer will re-torque the transfer case to transmission fasteners.
