When aimed with a mechanical aiming device, the headlamps do not meet the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, lamps, reflective devices and associated equipment. The light beam IS low and slightly to the left…
Seat warmer may short circuit or overheat due to manufacturing defect.
Back-up lights, although visible and functional, failed to meet the illumination standards set in federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 108, lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment.
Throttle actuator sticks, which prevents throttle from disengaging even when cruise control IS off.
Some two-piece wheel cap nuts have a faulty washer section that cannot be detected by the naked eye. This defect may lead to cracking of the washer section which can cause nut to loosen. Eventually, the nuts could fall off and the wheel…
Incorrect steel was used in manufacture of pitman shaft gear.
Clamp holding the two halves of the parking brake chamber may come loose or detach.
Gas control may fail to completely close resulting in gas flow through to the outside vent of the furnace.
Questionable welding procedure was used during manufacture of the hydraulic cylinder used for elevating the wheel lift.
Test results determine brake fluid failed boiling point, stability, evaporation and resistance to oxidation requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard 116, motor vehicle brake fluids.
Failure to meet the label certification requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard 126, truck camper loading. The decal on truck camper fails to show date manufactured and possibly incorrect total weight. Also, owner"s manual…
Trailer axle spindle could fracture when subjected to loads exceeding maximum load recommended.
Blade bending stresses are higher than expected, specifically with diesel engines governed at 1800 rpm and with fans operating at 1.2 times the engine crankshaft speed. Increased blade bending stresses are a result of resonant vibration at…
Brake hub rotors were not manufactured to the proper specifications, causing misalignment and eventual failure of the outer wheel bearing.
Blade bending stresses are higher than expected. Increased blade bending stresses are a result of resonant vibration at certain engine speeds.
Improper welding between the disk and rim allows fatigue cracks after extended use.
Lack of lubrication of the pins and the weakness of the material from which cylinder pins are made can develop into excessive pin wear. Such wear could cause the pins to shear, resulting in boom lift cylinder separating from the wrecker…
Candle power of lamps may be inadequate by as much as 40%, the lens does not produce a good beam pattern, bulb eye at the center does not have enough curvature to function as lens, and light sockets are poorly formed. Non compliance with…
Owner"s manual fails to conform to federal motor vehicle safety standard 126, truck camper loading. Center of gravity listed by the manufacturer IS not within an accuracy of 2 inches of the actual center of gravity of the camper.
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.
Wheel rim may crack or warp under use and cause tire to lose air.
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.
Weld at the tube/spindle joint IS misplaced, resulting in a joint that lacks the necessary strength.
The rim was not properly welded. Final weld joining two pieces was omitted and only a tack weld IS in place.
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…
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.
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 turbo charger housing may not be strong enough to contain the fragments if the rotor wheel should disintergrate. The wheel may have shattered under certain operating conditions which produce over-speed of the rotor.
