Reported risk: VEHICLES EQUIPPED FOR POLICE SERVICE. SOME VEHICLES WERE PRODUCED WITH FRAMES THAT MAY HAVE INADEQUATELY WELDED NO. 2 CROSSMEMBER ASSEMBLIES. CRACKS COULD INITIATE AT MISSING WELDS AND PROPOGATE TO ONE OF THE WELDED-ON FRONT SUSPENSION LOWER ARM ATTACHING GUSSETS. THE CRACKING MAY EXTEND AROUND THE GUSSET ALLOWING THE GUSSET AND THE FRONT SUSPENSION LOWER ARM TO DISENGAGE FROM THE FRAME. THIS CONDITION WOULD RESULT IN A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL.
