What is wrong
Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks. The antilock traction relay valves were incorrectly assembled by the supplier. An extra check valve was installed which will not allow the traction control system to function properly.

Remedy
Dealers will inspect these vehicles and all antilock traction relay valves found defective will be replaced.

Recall number 00V022000 · Recall details

Visibility: windshield wiper/washer: linkagesReported May 4, 1999 · 4,553 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks equipped with dana/sprague windshield wiper assemblies. The knurled pivot shaft (which operates the windshield wiper arm) is welded to a lever, which connects to linkage from the wiper motor. The weld at the pivot shaft to lever can fail.
Risk
Should a failure occur during inclement weather on the driver's side while the vehicle is in motion, the operator's vision would be partially obscured.
Remedy
Dealers will inspect the wiper system, conducting a "stall" test to validate the integrity of the weld. All wiper assemblies failing this test will be replaced.

Service brakes, airReported March 16, 1999 · 1,547 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks, transit and school buses, equipped with meritor air brake automatic slack adjusters. Some of the automatic slack adjusters had insufficient torque applied to the guide pawl cap screw.
Risk
Without sufficient torque on the guide pawl cap screw, the brakes could gradually lose adjustment, increasing the vehicle stopping distance.
Remedy
Dealers will check the torque on the automatic slack adjuster guide pawl. If there is no torque, the brakes will be adjusted and the guide pawl will be tightened to 15-20 ft. Lbs.

Power train: drivelineReported November 9, 1998 · 5,487 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks equipped with spicer spl170 55mm center bering package. The end yoke retaining nut can loosen.
Risk
If this condition occurs, the drive line can vibrate and separate from the vehicle, causing vehicular damage, or personal injury, or both.
Remedy
Dealers will remove the 55mm center bearing package and coupler shaft, and replace it with a new coupler shaft and a 60mm center bearing package. An interim remedy can be implemented by placing a spot weld on the coupling shaft threads until parts are available.

Recall number 98V290000 · Recall details

Engine and engine cooling: engineReported March 25, 1998 · 1,190 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks equipped with caterpillar c-10 or c-12 engines. A bracket or p-clamp at the rear of the engine that supports the compressor discharge line was omitted.
Risk
If the compressor discharge line fails, the air system could be depleted and cause the parking brakes to apply. This condition can cause the vehicle to slow down or stop unexpectedly, causing a vehicle crash which could result in property damage and/or personal injury.
Remedy
Dealers will install p-clamps and a bracket at the rear of the engine.
