Reported risk: NOTE: VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH NEWAY MODEL AD246 TANDEM SUSPENSIONS. A SHAFT THAT SUPPORTS THE SUSPENSION AIR BAG AND TRANSVERSE AIR BAG CROSSMEMBER MAY BE PRONE TO FAILURE. A FAILURE OF THIS SHAFT MAY RESULT IN THE VEHICLE LOSING RIDE HEIGHT, ALLOWING THE FRAME TO MAKE CONTACT WITH THE AXLE HOUSING. SIMULTANEOUS FAILURES OF BOTH SHAFTS ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE VEHICLE COULD RESULT IN AN INCREASED RISK OF ROLLOVER. CORRECTION: ALL FOUR SHAFTS (TWO ON EACH SIDE) WILL BE REPLACED ON EACH OF THE RECALLED VEHICLES.
