A material problem exists in the steel from which the axle spindles were made. As a result, the spindles may have a tendency to fracture when subjected to repeated jolts or stress. These jolts or continued stress may cause the wheel and…
The elastic portion of the retaining bolts used to support the steering gear box may be too short. As a result, these bolts will not lock sufficiently, causing the nuts to loosen and allowing the steering gear box assembly to become…
An imperfectly machined part may have been used in the steering column.
Some of the involved vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 121, "air brake systems". The release time for the rear brakes may exceed the .55 second limit requirement for safe braking.
Brakes may fail to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 121, "air brake systems". The air brakes on the front axle may not actuate and release within the time required for safe braking. The brakes may exceed the .55 second…
The steering column coupling, connecting the steering shaft to gear may have been machined oversized. The inside diameter of the coupling may be too large which may lead to coupling failure.
The mattresses included with certain vehicles do not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 302, "flammability of interior materials". The mattress covers burn at a faster rate than IS considered safe.
On certain vehicles, a protective rubber grommet may have been omitted from an opening in the metal battery compartment. These vehicles have the 12-volt electrical wires passing through a sharp edged opening in the metal battery…
During windshield wiper operation, the noise suppresion capacitor in the wiper motor relay may overheat.
On some of the involved vehicles, the fuel filler hose may break in a rear-end collision. The failure of the hose and resulting fuel leakage IS not in compliance with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 301, "fuel system integrity".
On some of the involved vehicles, the knurled nut, part of the rubber mount assembly which supports the differential, may have been cracked due to over-torquing of the final drive attaching bolt. This bolt may become loose, and continued…
On involved vehicles, the rear axle hub upright, which connects the hub carrier to the lower control arm, may pivot slightly. This condition will occur if the bolts attaching the upright to the hub carrier are not kept tight, combined with…
The carburetor fuel inlet housing plug in the side of the carburetor may come out.
The springs that assist in raising the hood may detach from the hood without warning. The hood can be in any position when this occurs.
On certain vehicles, the lock wedges used to secure the axle bearing nuts to the axle housing may fall out of position, allowing the nut to loosen. The nut on the left side may fall off, allowing movement of the axle shaft.
On certain vehicles, the welds on the fuel tank mounting brackets may fail. The fuel tank may slip and begin leaking fuel or it may separate entirely from the chassis.
The front axle drag link clamp assemblies installed on the suspect vehicles may contain bolts which have quench cracks and are subject to failure. Failure of the bolt would result in loss of clamping action and continued operation could…
On some of these vehicles, the electrical wiring may have been improperly routed and the wires could be severely pinched by the seat.
The park lever on the involved vehicles contains a defective spring which could prevent automatic engagement of the parking gear.
An incorrect insulator may have been installed in the steering shift cane lever on the involved vehicles. This insulator IS used to connect the transmission shift linkage to the shift cane lever. If the shift linkage were to separate from…
On the invovled vehicles the driver"s side and passenger"s outside rear view mirrors may have been omitted. This fails to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 111, "rearview mirrors".
The welding of the mounting bracket of the gasoline tank could fail to properly secure the fuel tank. If the mounting bracket fails fuel leakage and possible separation of the tank from the vehicle may occur.
Possible fuel leakage could occur at the throttle body injection fuel feed pipe connection on the involved vehicles.
Ignition switches installed in the involved vehicles may have been distorted during a crimping operation which resulted in the internal plastic contact carrier of the switch cracking. Pieces of a cracked carrier may break away, permitting…
The pitman arm which mounts to the steering gear may not be able to withstand frequent, high steering load applications. (Such as repeated contact between the steering system and the axle stops at maximum right turns). The pitman arm may…
On certain vehicles the steering wheel retaining nut may not have been adequately tightened during assembly. The nut may continue to loosen and could eventually come out, allowing the steering wheel to separate from the steering column.
The travel computer system wiring, on the involved vehicles, may be improperly connected. This condition can cause damage to internal components.
The involved vehicles may be equipped with an electrical fuel filler door release which IS activated through a coiled current carrying wire (a solenoid). A short in the solenoid could cause sparking at the attaching screws of the solenoid.
On certain vehicles improper air hose assembly procedures may have resulted in pieces being left in the hose. These pieces could block the hose and cause a malfunction.
The involved vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 210, "seat belt assembly anchorages". The non-compliance exists because the rear seat belt anchorages may pull through the underbody of the vehicle if enough…
