The driver's side air bag module may not properly deploy.
The hole in the bolt portion of the vandalock was drilled in an incorrect location, allowing the pin to be inserted with the bolt in the locked position while bypassing the starter interlock. This can result in the engine starting system…
The rim size, gross axle weight rating, and gross vehicle weight rating on these transit buses are incorrect. This does not comply with the requirements of part 567, "certification."
The "battery buddy" system IS designed to limit the amount of reserve battery power. Installation in these conversion vans can cause the battery to short at any time.
The parking brake control self-adjust pawl does not line up properly with the self-adjust rachet causing the pawl to slip over one or more teeth in the rachet.
The rear axle bearing locking washer was not assembled with a tab bent over the jam nut. The jam nut can loosen allowing the bearing adjusting nut to loosen.
The rear brake drums were not correctly machined. As the vehicle IS driven, loss of wheel clamp load can result from this condition. Once clamp load IS lost, all tire loads are directly taken by the wheel studs. This loading can cause…
The windshields were installed with incorrect windshield opening pinch-weld-flange primer. This primer will not properly etch the painted surface of the flange, allowing the windshield to separate from the vehicle during a collision. This…
The brake lines can contact the transmission mounting bracket of the frame side rail. The lines can wear through resulting in loss of brake fluid, and eventual loss of half the vehicle braking system.
The safety belt length does not meet the requirements to fit a 95TH percentile dummy in the driver's seat position if the seat IS in full forward position. This does not comply with the requirements of fmvss no. 208, "occupant crash…
The fuel tank attachment strap fasteners were not properly tightened. The fasteners can completely detach, eventually allowing the fuel tank to sag and the bottom of the tank to strike the roadway.
The steering gearbox mounting fasteners were not properly heat treated.
These trailers are equipped with a "swing-away" tongue that folds into a 90 degree angle when in storage. The holes used for the fasteners are larger than needed, causing a loaded trailer to weave unsafely.
The axle arm contacts the rear axle mounting bolt head.
The fuel tank filler pipe opening reinforcement can leak at the weld.
The front suspension track bar bracket attachment has inadequate fatigue strength and can fail, causing front axle vibration.
The automatic throttle chain can catch on the throttle linkage, causing the throttle to remain open.
An incomplete tire size was listed on the certification label. Also, the rim size listed on the certification label included only the width and not the width and diameter as required. These vehicles do not meet the requirements of fmvss…
A 2" ball was to be welded to a steel bar as well as the nut for the ball welded to the shank. Some vehicles were not properly welded allowing the nut to come off.
The angle of the rear combination lamp IS not within the proper specifications for fmvss no. 108, "lamps, reflective devices, and associated equipment."
The upper transaxle oil cooler hose can pull out of the crimped coupling at the transaxle end of the line assembly.
The retainer clip which holds the master cylinder push rod to the brake pedal arm IS missing or not completely installed. The push rod can separate from the brake pedal arm.
Two bolts that attach the passenger side air bag supplemental restraint system module to the instrument panel are missing. In the event of a frontal impact, the module can come out of the instrument panel.
The steering arm can develop cracks causing the lever to break without warning.
The base of the electronic accelerator pedal IS made of die cast aluminum. The base mounts directly to the cab firewall. The cab firewall IS not rigid enough or flat enough at the mounting surface, causing stress on the accelerator base…
The leveling jack hydraulic hose lines are routed close to the engine exhaust manifold. This can cause the hose to melt and result in a hydraulic fluid leak onto the exhaust manifold.
The aluminum wheels were clear coated several times to protect the metal finish. Some excessive coating can leave the wheel nuts an excessive distance from the wheel hub when tightened, allowing them to loosen over time.
A service brake hose and a spring brake hose are not of sufficient lengths which could cause one or both hoses to separate from the end fittings during full articulation.
Interference of the "drag link" with an adjusting screw of the left disc brake slack adjuster could occur when extreme suspension movement IS combined with maximum steering angle.
Throttle sensor rod can separate from ball stud due to excessive wearing of rod-end internal surfaces.
