The lock plate of the driver side inboard seat track adjusters were manufactured with an unauthorized modification to the fabrication process which causes the seat not to fully engage in certain seating positions near the mid-point of the…
The emergency pushout window assembly contains a latch that can disengage when subject to the retention force specified by fmvss no. 217, "bus window retention and release."
The electric motor powering the reclining child seat IS powered by the automobile battery/auxilliary power system through the cigarette lighter. The wiring used to connect the child seat to the cigarette lighter overheats and melts the…
The hydraulic brake master cylinder has internal damage caused by a malfunction of the automatic fill equipment used in the chassis assembly process.
These vehicles were equipped with incorrect spare wheels. The use of an incorrect spare wheel in a mounted position can, under certain load conditions, eventually cause the wheel to crack and possibly separate from the vehicle.
When the vehicle IS driven continuously under extremely cold temperatures (-22 degrees f.) and high humidity weather conditions, the transmission breathing (air) vent can be blocked due to moisture freezing at the oil level gauge. If this…
The helmets fail to meet the penetration, impact attenuation, and retention requirements of fmvss no. 218, "motorcycle helmets."
The stoves installed in the travel trailers were manufactured for natural gas operation and were not converted to propane gas operation. Use of a natural gas stove with propane gas fuel will create a high level of carbon monoxide.
The fabric cover of the pads on these seats do not meet the requirements of fmvss no. 302, "flammability of interior materials."
The intermediate fuel supply and return lines were spliced using rubber hose and worm-drive clamps. The rubber hose ruptures due to the pressure generated by the fuel pump, resulting in a fuel leak.
The engine oil cooler inlet hose may have been installed too close to the steering gear causing chafing. The chafing can eventually wear through the hose's protective sleeve resulting in engine oil leaking onto the engine.
Fatigue cracks develop in the front axle knuckle suppport on high mileage vehicles that can cause knuckle failure.
The bellhousings were not properly heat treated and, in the event of a clutch or flywheel explosion, could not contain the fragmented parts.
The lamp bulbs have an optical offset problem and do not conform to fmvss no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
The electrical wiring harness does not always insure a positive ground between the self-grounding seven way receptacle and the rear light assemblies through the sliding running gear frame. Vibration from vehicle operation causes…
High temperatures produced by the generator exhaust pipe can result in heat distortion and subsequent rupture of the air lines. A rupture would cause a malfunction of the instrument panel air pressure gauges and/or engagement of the manual…
Some upper control arm attaching bolts can fail due to improper heat treatment. The bolts are too soft to withstand the stresses in the steering system and can break.
The ten(10) mounts which are used to attach the ambulance module to the modified light truck chassis can fracture due to metal fatigue.
The air dryer of the air brake system collects water which can freeze, causing the high pressure relief valve not to open during an overpressure condition and block the air line from the dryer to the air brake system. If this condition…
During installation of the rear seats, the drills used to create pilot holes for mounting the rear seat penetrated the fuel tank crossover pipe located behind the rear spring hangar bracket above the rear spring. The damaged fuel lines…
Engine movement can be transmitted to the airflow meter/filter housing and support bracket, which IS mounted in the engine air duct, causing the throttle cable housing to pull out of the cable guide. This may prevent the throttle from…

The steel fuel return tubes that connect the frame fuel return lines with the engine fuel rail can contact the pinch weld flange connecting the dash panel to the floor pan. Continued contact leads to abrasion of the steel fuel return tube…
The secondary hood latch mechanism has a narrow clearance between internal parts which, over time, accumulate dust or other foreign matter and cause the latch to not engage properly.
The brackets that attach the steering column assembly to the cab structure cracks at the "v" notch in the bracket.
The rear brake hose mounting bracket screws can fail allowing the brake hoses to move out of position. The unrestrained hoses are then susceptible to damage which could result in brake fluid leakage.
Moisture can get into the powertrain control module (pcm) causing driveability malfunctions, including stalling.
When the product IS used to inflate a tire, and there IS sufficient air in the tire, a highly combustible gas/air mixture IS created.
The adhesive material of the two piece throttle body heater migrates into the circulation chamber causing build up of impurities and restriction of flow within the chamber. This condition and water vapors from the crank that freezes at low…
