All recalls

Suspension: front: springs: air suspension: lines and fittingsReported October 14, 1998 · 95,013 vehicles affected
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, airReported March 23, 1996 · 771 vehicles affected
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 systemReported February 12, 1996 · 6,034 vehicles affected
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

Service brakes, air: controls, pedals and linkagesReported November 13, 1995 · 2,456 vehicles affected
What is wrong
Undercoating applied to the inside of the cab shell squeezed out during assembly onto the brake pedal plunger.
Risk
Undercoating on the plunger may cause the plunger to stick resulting in increased brake pedal effort and/or slow release of the brakes increasing the potential for a vehicle accident.
Remedy
Dealers will clean the undercoating from the brake pedal plunger assembly, lubricate and reinstall the brake pedal plunger assembly.

Recall number 95V218000 · Recall details

Steering: linkages: arm: idler and attachmentReported June 7, 1995 · 175 vehicles affected
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.

Recall number 95V119000 · Recall details

Electrical system: wiringReported December 1, 1994 · 1,275 vehicles affected
What is wrong
The main electrical power harness was misrouted. If there was an electrical short in this harness, the circuit would not be fuse-protected.
Risk
A short in a misrouted power harness can create a potential for a vehicle fire.
Remedy
Dealers will reroute the subject power harness and reconnect the affected wires to the correct fuse-protected power junction.

Recall number 94V238000 · Recall details

Steering: steering wheel/handle barReported February 23, 1994 · 3,768 vehicles affected
What is wrong
The brackets that attach the steering column assembly to the cab structure cracks at the "v" notch in the bracket.
Risk
Failure of the bracket may cause the steering column assembly to fall, which may result in loss of steering control and an accident.
Remedy
Volvo gm will replace the suspect brackets with a newly designed bracket.
