Vacuum lines that help in the operation of the power braking system may collapse under vacuum pressure. Vehicle does not comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 106, "brake hoses", since vacuum lines…
In the event of a collision, vehicle may leak fuel when rolled to an inclination of less than 45 degrees. Although a vent valve IS present, the valve closes only when the vehicle angle exceeds 45 degrees. This does not comply with the…
Brakes may require excessive time to release after brake application. A second defect IS reduced holding power of the parking/emergency brakes due to entry of water in the rear brake chambers. Excessive release time does not comply with…
Cracks may develop in the weld area where the mounting bracket that attaches the suspension components IS welded to the axle. Cracks could eventually result in separation of the bracket.
Fuel leakage may develop at the two main fuel rail connections. Deterioration at these two connections has been traced to a combination of misalignment of the two rail halves and the effect of temperature changes.
The bolts that attach the d-shaped ring for the shoulder belt are inadequately supported by the material in which they are mounted. The attachment does not comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 210…
Voltage regulator which controls the amount of flow in the electrical system between the battery and the alternator, may have manufacturing errors in an integrated circuit. The regulator may overcharge the battery.
Left drive shaft may develop cracks, and may break under heavy loading such as that caused by rapid acceleration. This defect originated in a manufacturing process which has now been improved.
Production tolerance errors could allow accidental hood opening. If the hood IS not securely latched in the fully locked position, driving at high speed or hitting a large bump could cause the hood to open without warning.
Voltage regulator may overcharge due to manufacturing errors in an integrated circuit.
The slip joint between the cab mounted steering column shaft and the frame mounted steering gear may not have sufficient clearance. Excessive load on the slip joint may cause failure of the steering column shaft.
Flashers do not comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment". The durability, flash rate and starting time requirements are not met by the flashers.
Cracks may develop in the weld area of the axle mounting brackets and progress to the axle tube. Cracks can lead to failure of the axle.
The brass valve stem IS bent excessively, and may rub against the wheel rim. Valve stems that are bent more than 90 degress are considered overbent. Chafing against the wheel rim will cause a small hole to be made in the valve stem.
Within the steering system, high operating temperatures may cause eventual deterioration of the hose which returns power steering fluid to the pump. The hose may rupture and power steering assist will be lost.
The draglink, a part of the steering linkage that transmits turning movements to the wheels, may loosen or fail at one of its connections. This IS due to inadequate clamping force of the threaded connection on the vertical ball stud.…
Brake line may develop a hole or leak by shorting against a bare, live electrical line. The electrical conductor could lose insulation due to melting by muffler heat.
Air leaks may develop in the two hoses that connect to the emergency brake chambers. The rear emergency brake hose may not extend into the brake hose end fitting, due to poor crimping of the hose.
Tires may develop a separation of the reinforcing plies from the rubber compound in the shoulder area of the tread.
Wheel rim may crack or warp under use and cause tire to lose air.
The steering linkage may separate due to failure of the idler arm universal joint.
Shield over the governor flyweights may detatch from carrier and interfere with movement of the weights and governor linkage. The vehicle operator may not be able to shift into gear selected or to prevent engine over-speed.
The hood latch may fail to hold the hood in position due to a misalignment of the secondary hood latch. This condition IS due to a deformation of the hood during manufacture.
Mounting of the pitman arm may loosen and lead to excessive wear in either the pitman arm splines or the steering gear shaft splines, or both. This condition IS due to incorrect tightening of the mounting screws during assembly.
A spring leaf may fracture through the center hole section. This occurs due to loosening of the spring-to-axle mounting attachment following extreme flexing of the spring leaves. This kind of fracture makes the remaining two leaves…
Front wheels may wobble due to the inadvertent omission of a wheel bearing cup during assembly.
The throttle may jam and may not return to the closed position. This problem IS due to the omission, during assembly, of a nut on the cruise control rod which limits travel in the throttle mechanism.
Weld at the tube/spindle joint IS misplaced, resulting in a joint that lacks the necessary strength.
The fuel pump may stop functioning without warning. This can occur because an electrical connector in the fuse panel may overheat and interrupt the electrical circuit.
Brake lines installed underneath the carpeting in the passenger compartment may rust due to the entry of water and road salt. If rusting remains unchecked, it produces leaks in the lines and brake fluid may be lost.
