Risk and remedy
Risk
If the tread separates from the tire, the driver can lose control of the vehicle, possibly resulting in a crash causing injury or death.
Remedy
The replacement/reimbursement program for this campaign expired on august 29, 2001. however, customers should contact firestone customer service at 1-800-465-1904 for possible assistance.
Vehicle description: multi-purpose passenger vehicles equipped with factory installed sunroof. the sunroof glass panel assembly can separate while the vehicle IS moving due to incorrect hinge engagement. this was caused by improper sunroof installation of the glass panel.
Risk and remedy
Risk
Unexpected separation of the sunroof glass panel could possibly distract the driver increasing the risk of a vehicle crash or loss of vehicle control.
Remedy
Owners will be provided with an instruction booklet which thoroughly outlines, with illustrations, the proper procedures for the removal, storage, and reinstallation of the sunroof's glass panel. a warning label for attachment to the sunroof's latch knob will also be provided to the owners.
A short circuit condition can occur in the remote power mirror control switch circuit board as a result of a separated part of the contact assembly bridging the switch positive battery pad and adjacent chassis ground pad.
Risk and remedy
Risk
The current can overheat the printed circuit board and other plastic and elastomeric components of the switch assembly resulting in smoke or fire.
Remedy
Dealers will install an in-line 10 amp fuse in the positive battery feed to the remote power mirror control switch assembly.
The studs which attach the brake master cylinder to the power brake vacuum booster assembly can develop stress corrosion cracking after being operated for an extended period of time in the southern california location.
Risk and remedy
Risk
If a crack occurs, it could result in one or both studs fracturing. The master cylinder could then separate from the vacuum booster, when the brakes are applied, preventing the service brakes from activating increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.
Remedy
Dealers will replace the power brake vacuum booster assembly.
Vehicle description: multi-purpose passenger vehicles. this IS not a safety recall in accordance with federal regulation 573. however, it IS deemed a safety improvement campaign by the agency. the campaign will reinforce the bracket attachments of the rear liftgate gas assist cylinders which could pull away from the inside of the liftgate.
Risk and remedy
Risk
If a bracket and gas assist cylinder were to detach completely from the liftgate and no longer bear against the liftgate as intended, the remaining assist cylinder would not hold the liftgate in an open position. personal injury could occur.
Remedy
Ford dealers will reinforce the bracket attachments.
The hydraulic lift cylinders are attached to brackets that are welded to the liftgate. The bracket welds can fracture.
Risk and remedy
Risk
With a broken bracket weld, there IS a potential for the liftgate bracket to gradually bend inward allowing the lift cylinderball stud to disengage.
Remedy
Dealers will install reinforcement brackets.
