SUMMARY:
On certain pickup trucks, the front wheel bearing may have received an insufficient quantity of grease during the manufacturing process.

This could result in bearing degradation, and if subsequent noise and vibration are ignored, could result in hub assembly separation. This may result in a loss of vehicle control and cause a crash without warning.
