During a crash barrier test, the rubber hose connecting the fuel tank and the metal filler pipe vent tube was cut, resulting in fuel leakage. The involved vehicles fail to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 301, "fuel…
Under certain tolerance conditions, the accelerator rod may come into contact with the accelerator return spring bracket, creating the possibility of a momentary delay in the return of the accelerator linkage to the idle position. This…
The involved vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 208, "occupant crash protection in passenger cars, mpvs, trucks and buses". The non-compliance exists because the seat belts may have been omitted from the…
On the involved vehicles, improper routing of the hydraulic brake tube could cause it to chafe against the park brake cables. Eventually, the brake tube may fail and brake fluid leakage may occur.
On certain of the involved vehicles, the lamp bulb socket barrels are insufficiently pressed into the plastic outer sheels. This causes an open or grounded circuit and a malfunction.
The steering pitman arm cross bolts on the involved vehicles may not have been sufficiently tightened to properly secure the arm to the steering gear shaft. The bolt may loosen further during continued vehicle operation.
The seat back adjustment mounting brackets installed on some vehicles may crack. This may lead to separation of the seat frame from the seat back.
The rear axle shafts received improper heat treatment during manufacture. The shaft may break and the tire and wheel assembly could disengage from the vehicle.
The fuel inlet pipe may develop cracks at the flared end leading into the carburetor due to vibrations in operation. These cracks could result in fuel leakage.
The trailers have incorrect connections between the supply line and the dolly. This improper connection prevents the dolly and full trailer from having the ability to perform emergency braking or parking brake functions.
The tires of the front axle assembly may come into contact with a floor support crossmember and limited tire clearance between the front tires and the wood decking will result. When trailer IS loaded the tire will rub against the support…
The involved vehicles may contain emergency escape windows that do not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 217, "bus window retention and release". Excessive force may be required to open these windows.
Fuel tank ventilator valve in the fuel system may produce a loud and persistent "whistle" during venting of the tank. If the fuel filler cap IS removed while this condition exists and the tank IS more than 3/4 full, gasoline may be forced…
The placement of a fixed metal spider and lens in front of the head lamps on these vehicles may adversely affect the quality of the light output. This does not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective…
The hand valve installed in the vehicle may have been incorrectly positioned. This would allow air to escape from both the front and rear service systems simultaneously if the control line to the rear axle relay valves should fail.…
The involved trucks may have been assembled without the installation of a single check valve. This fails to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 121, "air brake systems". In the event of a single failure in the rear air…
The vehicle certification labels and vehicle idendification number plates may not have been installed on the involved vehicles. This does not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 115, "vehicle identification number-basic…
The rear wheel fender air cleaning mounting brackets could crack due to engine vibrations over a period of time. Bolts which secure the fender could loosen and the fender could contact the rear tire, causing wheel lock-up.
On some of the involved seat belt assemblies, binding in the retractor mechanism may prevent the belt from being withdrawn from the retractor. This would render the seat belt unusable.
Incorrect compliance labels may have been installed on the involved vehicles. These labels specify "incomplete vehicles".
Compliance labels on the involved vehicles may contain typographical errors in the section stating compliance to specific safety standards.
On some of the involved vehicles, the barrel area between the inner and outer bearings of the hubs could develop cracks. Eventually the hubs could fail.
The hydraulic brake booster may not be properly secured due to the omission of a necessary supporting bracket in the process of power steering installation. The hydraulic brake line could be subject to failure due to resulting fatigue.
The section that carries the power cables from the batteries to the engine (called the "hat" section) could fracture causing the main power cable to chafe.
The drag ling clamps may contain defective capscrews. These capscrews may contain cracks which could eventually lead to capscrew failure.
The brake hydraulic system bay be equipped with brake fluid containing an excess of water.
Some of the involved vehicles contain defective capscrews in the two drag link clamps. These capscrews contain quench cracks which, over a period of time, may cause them to break.
The egr valve assembly may develop cracks at the welded joint between the valve and the valve shaft. Cracks may enlarge with continued use and the valve could separate from the shaft.
Some of the involved vehicles contain incorrect accelerator cable brackets. This could allow the cruise control servo rod to bind on the accelerator cable bracket.
The mounting of the crossmember may be insufficient. Crossmembers are mounted to a shim piece of square tubing and then this entire structure IS mounted to the frame. The small shim piece could become detached from the crossmember which…
