DRIVERS SIDE REAR LEAF SPRING HANGER SHEARED OFF FROM FRAME WHILE UNDERWAY. I HAD A WELDER TELL ME THAT THE WELDS LOOKED LIKE THEY HAD "UNDERCUT" . WHILE THE UNIT WAS AT THE FACTORY REPAIR CENTER FOR OTHER FAILURES, I WAS TOLD THERE WERE NO ISSUES. THIS FAILURE TOOK PLACE WITHIN WEEKS OF THE FACTORY INSPECTION. AXLE SEPARATION FROM THE FRAME COULD HAVE HAPPENED IF THIS WASN'T CAUGHT QUICKLY. I HAD THE UNIT WEIGHED PREVIOUSLY AS WAS WELL UNDER GVWR.
A SHACKLE ON THE LEAF SPRING FAILED WHILE IN MOTION. FAILURE WAS FOUND DURING ROUTINE PHYSICAL INSPECTION. FURTHER FAILURE OF THE THE ATTACHMENT POINTS COULD HAVE CAUSED THE LOSS OF ONE OR MORE AXLES.
