The bridge in the seat belt buckle locking mechanism of the front seat belt assembly may have been improperly bent. The buckle may not hold properly and will release, if extreme forces are applied.
The automatic cooler line hoses on some of the suspect vehicles may contain material voids, which combined with a high thermal expansion at elevated temperatures, could result in hose failure and transmission fluid leakage.
The stop lamp switch may have been installed in a low pressure part of the hydraulic brake system. Consequently, there may be insufficient pressure to actuate the lamp switch and illuminate the stop lamps during light brake applications.
The involved units may contain a defective solenoid which can deteriorate in service due to moisture build up from rain water and other external sources.
The bottom plates, which are located at the bottom part of the trailer axle, may fracture during severe operation of the involved semi-trailers. Fracture of one or more of these bottom plates on a single axle could allow the trailer"s axle…
The lower steering shaft coupling on the involved vehicles may have an oversized serration diameter in the attachment area to the steering gear shaft. Since this oversized coupling may not be adequately engaged on the steering gear shaft…
The shift cable retaining clip may have been installed backwards or not at all. The purpose of this spring clip IS to secure the lower end of the shift cable housing to the transmission. If the clip IS backward or missing, the console…
The defect IS in the engine accelerator system. The accelerator pedal may not align with the center of the floor mounted pedal stop bracket. The potential exists for the pedal, when depressed, to slip off and to the side of the pedal stop…
The fuel separators on the involved vehicles may have thin walls due to a material thickness problem. The separators in these walls may crack and may allow fuel vapors or liquid fuel to leak into the engine under high pressure conditions.
As a result of severe shock and vibrations, the brake spiders on the involved vehicles may develop cracks near the camshaft mounting boss. The crack propagates across the spider until the camshaft boss IS completely severed from the…
The headlamp switches on the involved vehicles may fail without warning and cause loss of vehicle instrument and road lights.
Due to the operation of the dual fuel option there exists the potential for backfire through the carburetor. This can cause carburetor damage due to excessive pressures. Also, fuel leakage could occur when the system IS reverting to…
Tires fail to meet the endurance requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard N0. 109, "new pneumatic tires". Tires may develop tread separation and continued use may cause the ply cords to break.
A number of wheel assemblies on the involved vehicles may have substandard welds in the area where the disc IS attached to the rim. Substandard welds can cause cracks to occur in the wheel assembly. Rapid loss of air pressure in the tire…
Steel used in manufacturing rocker beams and slider sub-frames for the involved trailers may have been of sub-standard quality. These parts could become brittle and fracture, especially in cold weather.
The windshield on the involved vehicles could unseat and blow into the cab of the truck.
Under certain conditions such as ambient humidity and vehicle pre-conditioning by repeated cold start, and short trip driving cycles in combination with sub-zero temperatures, there exists the possibility for ice to form in the throttle…
The involved tires fail to meet the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 119, "new pneumatic tires for vehicles other than passenger cars". After 47 hours of the endurance test, the tires exhibited tread tie-bar…
The lock wire groove in the brake master cylinder was improperly machined. This could lead to brake failure.
Due to defective installation procedures on the involved vehicles, there IS a possibility of slack adjuster damage. This could result in brake failure on the rear wheel end.
The bolts that attached the rear suspension control arms to the frame and axle may be defective and the bolt head may separate from the bolt shank. This could allow the control arm to come loose.
The material used for the headlight chrome ring retaining blade of the headlight nacelle IS weak. As a result, the outside ring may vibrate free and allow the headlight to fall from the fairing.
The front brake hose routing on the involved vehicles may allow interference between the hoses and the front tires during extreme turning angles.
The involved vehicles are not equipped with the proper labels stating tire, rim and inflation information. This constitutes a non-compliance to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 120, "tire selection and rims for motor vehicles…
The involved vehicles are equipped with a mirror that IS less than 12.5 square inches in reflective surface area or the mirror may have been omitted entirely. This constitutes a non-compliance to federal motor vehicle safety standard no.…
The cast hubs on some of the involved vehicles were improperly manufactured. They may be subject to high mileage fatigue cracks at the inner bearing area or along the flange portions to which the wheels are mounted.
A half shaft assembly on the right or left side of the front wheel drive mechanism may develop a fracture near its inboard attachment point.
The involved vehicles fail to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 120, "tire selection and rims for vehicles other than passenger cars". Some of the tires (alcoa tube type) were improperly marked 22.5 x 7.5/5 when they…
Due to fuel hose connection deterioration, the fuel hose connection from the underbody fuel pipe to the fuel rail at the rear of the engine may leak gasoline.
