The issue
POLICE PACKAGE VEHICLES. RIGHT AND LEFT REAR SUSPENSION LOWER CONTROL ARMS MAY HAVE BEEN FABRICATED FROM STEEL WITH A MATERIAL THICKNESS BELOW THE MINIMUM SPECIFICATION. UNDER SEVERE CONDITIONS, STRESSES INDUCED IN THE CONTROL ARMS COULD CAUSE FATIGUE CRACKS WITH POSSIBLE SUBSEQUENT BREAKAGE OF THE CONTROL ARMS. THIS WOULD ALLOW THE REAR AXLE TO SHIFT AND ADVERSELY AFFECT VEHICLE CONTROL.
