On certain 4WD vehicles, the processing measurement for the rear axle shaft is incorrect. Because of this, a repetition of starts or turning etc. may break the locknut loose. At worst, the locknut comes off, causing the wheel to separate from the frame.

The rear axle shaft should be inspected. If there is a possibility that its measurement is incorrect, the rear axle shaft assembly should be replaced with a non-defective item, and the locknut should be replaced with a new one.
