Recalls 5
Suspension: front: springs: air suspension: lines and fittings
- What is wrong
- Vehicle description: class 8 heavy duty trucks. The air suspension control valve supply line was not plumbed through an air pressure protection valve. In the event of a failure, there would be loss of air pressure in the 'b' system air reservoir that supplies air pressure for the front steer axle brakes.
- Risk
- This condition would result in increased stopping distances.
- Remedy
- Dealers will install the necessary air pressure protection valve.
Recall number 98V255000 · Recall details
Service brakes, hydraulic: foundation components
- What is wrong
- The rear most axle of the tandem axle set could have inoperable brakes on one or both wheels because the brake s-cam was incorrectly installed.
- Risk
- This condition could cause increased stopping distance increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
- Remedy
- Dealers will inspect the brake system and repair the s-cam assembly if found reversed.
Recall number 96V157000 · Recall details
Service brakes, air
- What is wrong
- The traction solenoid exhaust can be obstructed due to inadequate drainage and a build-up of road contamination between the mounting bracket and the solenoid housing. The obstructed exhaust prevents the relay valve control air pressure from venting after a differential braking traction event.
- Risk
- This condition would keep the rear axle service brakes applied without any brake pedal movement by the driver increasing the risk of a vehicle accident.
- Remedy
- Dealers will remove the suspect valve and install a new valve that has a modified solenoid housing which will allow for sufficient drainage and a new valve mounting bracket with increased height to reduce entry of contamination.
Recall number 96V095000 · Recall details
Suspension: rear: springs: air suspension system
- What is wrong
- The rear suspension axle retention plate can break under normal use, affecting axle alignment.
- Risk
- This condition could result in loss of rear axle stability affecting vehicle directional control and increasing the potential for a vehicle crash.
- Remedy
- Dealers will remove and replace the axle retention clip plates on affected vehicles.
Recall number 96V032000 · Recall details
Steering: linkages: arm: idler and attachment
- What is wrong
- Two bolts attaching the upper steering arm to the front steering axle were not tightened properly.
- Risk
- The bolts could loosen increasing the potential for loss of steering control and an accident.
- Remedy
- Dealers will install new bolts and tighten to proper torque specification.
