The field reports allege that the loss of motive power occurs at highway speed with no warning. The field reports cite differential seal leaks resulting in rear differential lock-up as the cause of the loss of motive power. Some of the field reports allege that the rear differential lock-up caused the driveshaft to fracture while the vehicle was in motion resulting in the vehicle being towed.
