IF THE CARRIER AND REINFORCEMENT ATTACHING BOLTS ARE INCORRECT, THE POTENTIAL EXISTS FOR THE TIRE SIDEWALL TO BE DAMAGED OR WEAKENED BY EXTENDED CONTACT WITH THE SHARP EDGES OF THE BOLT HEADS. Built 1980-05-01 to 1981-05-01. |
|---|---|
| 81V061000 | 1981-05-21. STRUCTURE. THE INVOLVED TRUCKS WERE MANUFACTURED WITH A CERTAIN PORTION OF SPECIFIED FLOOR PAN INSULATION MATERIAL (BENEATH THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER SEAT) OMITTED. BECAUSE OF THIS OMISSION, A SECTION OF THE SHEET METAL FLOOR PAN WAS LEFT EXPOSED OVER THE EXHAUST SYSTEM IN AN AREA OF POSSIBLE PASSENGER CONTACT. Built 1981-01-01 to 1981-01-01. |
| 80V145000 | 1980-11-10. FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY:MOUNTING. DURING A CHANGE IN ASSEMBLY PROCEDURES, CERTAIN OF THE MID-SHIP FUEL TANK STRAPS MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED OR MISLOCATED. AS A RESULT, THEY FAIL TO CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 301, "FUEL SYSTEM INTEGRITY". IN THE EVENT OF A COLLISION, EXCESSIVE FUEL SPILLAGE MAY OCCUR. Built 1980-09-01 to 1980-10-01. |

UNDER CERTAIN CONDITIONS THE OUTER SIDEWALL OF THE SPARE TIRE MAY CONTACT THE SHARP EDGE OF THE BOLT AND POSSIBLY RESULT IN THE ABRASION OF THE SIDEWALL. SUCH ABRASION COULD CAUSE WEAKENING OF THE TIRE SIDEWALL AND WHEN THE SPARE TIRE IS USED AS A REPLACEMENT, IT COULD FAIL WITH SUDDEN LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE AND MIGHT RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL. |
|---|---|
| 1980154 | 1980-11-17. VEHICLES MANUFACTURED AT THE KANSAS CITY ASSEMBLY PLANT. VEHICLES MAY HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED WITH MISLOCATED OR INADEQUATELY TIGHTENED MID-SHIP FUEL TANK STRAPS.

A campaign lists a year, a make and a model, and often only some of the vehicles built. A list with nothing on it is not a clearance either. The lookups below check one VIN.
