Increased resistance in the system wiring connectors due to the possible presence of lacquer, plastic residue on the pins and imperfect pin diameters, may cause ignition misfiring and, in extreme cases, intermittent stalling.
On certain vehicles, the air starter valves may become internally damaged during normal operation. This may result in a malfunction of the valve, causing the air starter to self actuate and start the engine of an unattended vehicle.
Certain tires do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 109, "new pneumatic tires", due to tread separation while in service and subsequent tire failure.
The possibility exists that the suspect wheels were not manufactured for highway use and may fail if used on the highway.
The routing and fastening of the auxiliary starter cable in the area of the engine compartment IS fastened in such a fashion that it may, through contact with a frame member, chafe and create an electrical short.
Due to the high strain within the fan blades of the cooling fan, cracks may develop in the fan. These cracks may lead to complete fracture of the cooling fan, propelling the fan and pieces of the fan blades outside the fan shroud.
On certain vehicles, the front main wiring harness chafes against the threads of the rear battery hold down rod. Chafing of the wiring harness can lead to an electrical short caused by the exposed wires.
Certification labels affixed to some of the involved vehicles, contain incorrect information regarding the rear gross axle weight rating. The weight rating, as stated, IS too low and the tires were not adequately inflated to sustain the…
On the involved vehicles, the rear brake drum balance weights may interfere with the aluminum wheels. This contact could cause the wheel lug nuts to loosen, leading to wheel stud failure. This could allow separation of the wheel and tire…
