Americas Front Driveshaft CV redesign

[Commodore]

Ineos crew, there is an issue with the front driveshaft CV at the transfer case side. The acute driveline angle generates heat causing the rubber on the CV to rip and spill grease. This leads to failure of the CV joint and ultimately immediate loss of forward propulsion. The failures have been well documented. Do you have plans to redesign this part or should owners start looking for their own permanent solutions?

This is a serious safety concern that needs to be resolved.

Apparently they are putting the able on a jig, grinding the welds off that hold the axle tubes into the diff housing, rotating it then welding it back up. DMW have dealers all around Australia. Apparently they will replace the whole front axle on an exchange basis.

Watching this with interest. IF that front CV issue is resolved then i would seriously consider buying a Grenadier pending the cost to modify, and hope my purchase has a good working HVAC. Hoping ineos gets involved in this or doing something to address customers concerns as the Ineos aren't saying much lately.
