1993-1994 Suzuki Sidekick:
Date Announced: APRIL 16, 1994
Vehicles Affected: 5,247
Recall # 94V073002
Summary: The right rear and left axle shaft housing tubes were incorrectly welded and can fracture. Fracture of the rear axle shaft housing can result in separation of the affected wheel assembly and separation of the brake line.
Consequence: Separation of the wheel assembly can cause loss of vehicle control and separation of the brake line results in loss of one-half of the braking system, increasing stopping distance. In either case, an accident can occur.
Actions: Dealers will inspect the welds of the rear axle assemblies on involved vehicles and, if necessary, replace the complete rear axle assembly. For detailed information & supporting documents, see the NHTSA page concerning recall #94V073002 »

Consequence: If the strut broke loose, a driver could lose control of the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Actions: Dealers will add a reinforcement, for both front struts, between the front strut mounting base and the vehicle body.
