Recalls 4

Power train: automatic transmissionReported May 16, 2008 · 15,549 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Mitsubishi fuso is recalling 15,549 my 1999-2004 fe639, fe649, and fg639 trucks; my 2001-2004 fe640, and my 2003-2004 fh210 trucks equipped with automatic transmissions. Normal heat emanating from the exhaust pipe may cause the automatic transmission shift linkage to deform. The effort required to operate the automatic transmission shift control lever may increase if the linkage binds due to the deformation.
Risk
The shift control lever may become inoperative, or the physical shift lever position on the shift lever housing gear indicator may not match the actual gear selection at the transmission.
Remedy
Dealers will install a modified automatic transmission shift control lever assembly free of charge. The recall began on august 6, 2008. Owners may contact mitsubishi fuso at 1‑856‑467‑4500.

Recall number 05V303000 · Recall details

Power train: automatic transmission: lever and linkage: floor shiftReported June 29, 2005 · 15,549 vehicles affected
What is wrong
On certain medium duty trucks, rust build-up on the automatic transmission (a/t) shift linkage may cause the linkage to bind. Rust build-up is accelerated in geographic locations that are situated near large bodies of salt water, or in regions with heavy snow/ice melting compound usage in winter months.
Risk
The effort required to operate the a/t shift control lever may increase if the linkage binds due to rust build-up. The shift control lever may become inoperative, or the physical shift lever position on the shift lever housing gear indicator may not match the actual gear selection at the transmission.
Remedy
Dealers will install a modified a/t shift control lever assembly. The recall began on september 26, 2005. Owners may contact mitsubishi fuso at 1‑856‑467‑4500.
