The rim was not properly welded. Final weld joining two pieces was omitted and only a tack weld IS in place.
Vehicles may have fuel or vapor line damage caused when an incorrect procedure was used in tightening bolts on adjacent components during assembly. The fuel tank may become damaged due to a loose cross member that supports it.
A collision could result in a fuel line being pinched between the fuel pump inlet and the electrical diagnostic unit mounting bracket. This could cause a fuel leak which IS a failure to comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no.…
Fuel tank may overflow and leak if filled to or past its normal maximum capacity. Excess fuel would escape through the air vent on the tank.
The wiper blade may extend too far and catch on the radio antenna bracket. The connection of the wiper arm and the pivot could be damaged. The condition IS caused by an incorrect setting of the wiper arm height above the pivot.
The rear seat belts do not include emergency-locking or automatic-locking retractors. The belts do not comply with federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 208, "occupant crash protection".
Excessive heat may be transferred to the vehicle floor pan in the rear seat area. This occurs because the muffler heat shield was omitted during manufacture of certain fleet cars. Rear seat cushions may be scorched by heat.
Separation of the rubber compound from the reinforcing material in the tread or sidewall area. Tires do not comply with the endurance requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 119, "new pneumatic tires for vehicles other…
Inadequate clearance between the underside of the hood and the throttle linkage could damage the linkage and prevent the throttle from returning to idle position. This condition IS due to installation of the incorrect hood style during…
Circuits in the control panel may develop shorts.
Statements required by federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 126, "truck camper loading", were omitted. The center of gravity has been incorrectly calculated and IS actually 55 inches from the rear of the camper, rather than 48 inches…
Wheels may contain defective welds that may fail when the vehicle IS carrying the rated load or a lesser weight.
The right front crossover pipe, which carries brake hydraulic fluid, may break and leak fluid. This occurs when the right front fender skirt contacts the pipe and vibration causes the pipe to wear through.
The master cylinder rear brake pipe, which carries brake fluid to the rear brakes, may develop a leak due to extended chafing on the air cleaner resonator bracket.
The brake proportioner valves may break and separate from the master cylinder. This would allow brake fluid to leak and would result in a partial loss of the brake system.
Cracking may develop in tread grooves at the centerline of the tread. Separation of the rubber compound from the reinforcing plies may result. Tires do not comply with the endurance requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no.…
The vehicle may be able to exceed 30 mph, and will not have sufficient braking capacity or lighting for speeds of 30 mph and above. Because the vehicle can exceed the speed requirement, the brakes have not been certified to meet the…
There may be poor resistance to impact which could result in bruising and lead to separation of the rubber compound from the plies in the tread or sidewall areas. Tires do not comply with the minimum strength requirements of federal motor…
Adjusting springs of the brake shoe assembly deteriorate in service due to unsatisfactory material and may reach the failure point. Deterioration IS accelerated by contact with salt water.
Vehicles may not meet the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 301, "fuel system integrity". In an impact test from the rear, the bumper support structure deformed enough to allow contact of a support bracket with the…
The yoke of the transmission propeller shaft may lack required strength due to erroneous counterbore operation in which 10 millimeters of extra material may have been cut. This condition could lead to fracture of the yoke in service.
Bolted installation of the steering gear housing has a tendency to loosen in service. This IS due to a backward installation of the lockwashers, which are bellville type, and a resultant incorrect torque on the bolts.
Under severe strain, a defective weld joining the steering wheel hub to the hub perimeter could fail, causing the steering wheel to separate from the vehicle.
The throttle may have a protrusion which can be impeded by the fuel pump cover and cause loss of accelerator control. The interference occurs between the throttle lever stop pin and a rivet securing a side plate on the fuel pump housing.
The tire and rim and the choke information labels were not installed. The involved vehicles do not conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 120, "tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars".
The rim size IS not stated on the tire and rim label. This IS a failure to conform to the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 120, "tire selection and rims for motor vehicles other than passenger cars".
Road wheels with oversized mounting holes may have been installed on the affected vehicles. Oversized holes could cause inadequate tightening of the wheel to the hub, looseness of the wheel, and possible separation of the wheel from the…
Due to incorrectly installed mounting brackets, the two crash barriers, located on the right and left sides ahead of the front seats on the involved buses, do not meet the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 222…
Certain vehicles were assembled with an insufficient height differential between the accelerator and brake pedals.
Fuel supply tubes installed in the affected vehicles are too short. Consequently, flexible hoses that attach to the tubes may be taut and this would have an adverse effect on the durability of hose connections. In the event of hose…
