The left or right front safety belt assembly may have been installed on the incorrect side of the vehicle. The shoulder belt locking mechanism may not function under rapid deceleration. Under hard braking applications or in a collision…
The transmission throttle control rod spring may have been improperly installed. This may cause the throttle to close more slowly than normal. Vehicles may return to idle slowly.
The use of the dual wheel adaptor on the rear wheel assembly may cause premature failure of the rear wheel bearing and axle. Also, the rear axle shaft could break at the roller bearing, without warning, allowing the rear tire and wheel to…
Roof hatches may be propped open to allow for fresh air ventillation. The prop mechanism was designed to disengage when full opening of the hatch IS required to exit. The release button that disengages the prop mechanism may require…
Some of the subject vehicles may have been built with front wheel brake hoses that are too long. This may make it possible for the brake hose to contact a front tire during a full left or right turn, which could result in chafing of the…
The liquid propane gas line IS routed in such a way that it may come into contact with the sharp edge of the forward steel oven retaining bracket.
Due to installation difficulties during modification of the fuel pump, the pump may have been misaligned. Certain adverse conditions or high loads such as trailer towing, motor sports events, or other driving modes which impose abnormally…
The involved vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 111, "rearview mirrors", and no. 119, "new pneumatic tires for vehicles other than passenger cars". The rearview mirror IS undersized, tires are not labeled…
The rearview mirror of the involved mopeds has only 11.6 square inches of reflective surface. This fails to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 111, "rearview mirrors", which requires 12.6 inches of reflective surface.
The weld on the upper steering shaft where the female spline connects to the tube assembly may have been incorrectly positioned and actually missed the seam.
The plastic bell crank bushing for the pressure control rod of the automatic transmission could deform due to high temperatures in the engine compartment produced by the catalytic converter. This can cause the control rod to dislodge. A…
The rearview mirror of the involved mopeds has only 11.6 square inches of reflective surface and therefore does not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 111, "rearview mirrors", which requires 12.6 inches of reflective…
The involved vehicles have the emergency exits labeled "exit" instead of "emergency exit" and the emergency exit release mechanisms are not labeled with the required operating instructions. Also, the tire diameter, load range and rim width…
Some of the involved vehicles were assembled with tongue-end rear seat belt assemblies instead of the buckle end and tongue-end assemblies. Without the buckle end assemblies, the rear seat belts cannot be fastened.
On some trailers, the butt-welds on the a-frame may be insufficient. Under loading, the insufficient welds may break and the tongue a-frame may separate from the trailer.
Chafing may occur between the throttle return springs and their mounting brackets and can cause the hook end of the spring to wear prematurely and eventually break.
The front reclining pump mounting bracket may separate from the tubular seat frame, creating a potential driving hazard.
The lockwasher for the two bolts holding the left and right axle strut to the axle bearing housing, as well as the bolt holding the wishbone to the crossmember, may have been improperly manufactured. Some of these washers are too brittle.…
Information supplied on the certification plate IS insufficient and inaccurate.
Vehicles may be subject to abrasive contact between the rear brake hose/pipe assembly and the axle housing with normal brake usage and rear pad wear. Should this condition occur, it could lead to a brake hose/pipe failure, resulting in…
On some of the involved vehicles, the brake pushrod to brake pedal retaining pins may be missing or loose. Insecurely installed or missing retainers could result in disengagement of the brake pushrod and total loss of service braking.
The rubber plug used to seal off one of the tank outlets may deteriorate under dry, high ozone environmental conditions (particularly high temperatures) allowing fuel leakage.
The nuts which fasten the tie rod ends to the steering arms may not have been tightened to the specified 150 ft-lb torque. Insufficiently tightened tie rod end nuts could loosen, break off the locking cotter pin, and allow the tie rod to…
The involved vehicles may have been assembled without the retainer clip for the brake pedal push rod. The absence of this retainer clip could allow the brake pedal to disengage from the master cyclinder push rod.
The steering drag link on some of the involved trucks may have been damaged due to contact with the trw integral power steering gear. Repeated contact can lead to separation of the drag link.
Some of the involved vehicles have electrical relay systems which may be susceptible to water leakage into the relay case. Water entry may cause a short circuit within the relay.
On certain vehicles, porous spots may have developed on the interior surface of the threaded hole for the brake hose during the moulding process. These spots allow brake fluid to seep from the calipers during heavy brake applications.
During a change in assembly procedures, certain of the mid-ship fuel tank straps may have been improperly installed or mislocated. As a result, they fail to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 301, "fuel system integrity".…
Some of the flexible five-blade engine cooling fans may be subject to high blade stresses that can result from resonant vibration inputs occurring during normal vehicle operation. This can lead to fatigue cracking of the blades. Portions…
Some of the flexible five-blade engine cooling fans may be subject to high blade stresses that can result from resonant vibration inputs occurring during normal vehicle operation. This can result in the blades cracking due to fatigue, and…
