Note: This is an expansion of recall 2005028 (05S28) for vehicles not previously included in the campaign. |
|---|---|
| 2007403 | 2007-12-12. Engine. On certain vehicles equipped with a 7.3L diesel engine, the camshaft position sensor may fail, causing the engine to stall. Engine stalling would result in lost propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road conditions, and the driver's reactions, could increase the risk of a crash. Correction: Dealers will inspect and, if required, replace the camshaft position sensor. |
| 2005028 | 2005-02-14. Electrical. On certain vehicles, the speed control deactivation switch may overheat, smoke, or burn, potentially resulting in an underhood fire. The condition may occur either when the vehicle is parked or when it is in operation. Correction: Initially as an interim repair, owners will be instructed to return their vehicles to their dealers to have the speed control deactivation switch disconnected. As soon as replacement parts are available, owners will be instructed to return to the dealers for installation of a new switch or fused wiring harness. |
| 2002046 | 2002-03-11. Brakes. Certain trucks equipped with manual transmissions. Fatigue failure of the front parking brake cable input button these vehicles could result in failure of the parking brake system to hold the vehicle stationary. This could result in unintended vehicle movement and a vehicle crash without prior warning. Correction: dealers will replace the front parking brake cable and the controller and verify the performance of the parking brake system on these vehicles. |
| 1999215 | 1999-11-15. Fuel System. On certain trucks equipped with an 8 foot box, pickup box attachments may be damaged during the 48 km/h front barrier test. During the subsequent static rollover test required by CMVSS 301 - Fuel System Integrity, a pickup box with damaged attachments may shift or become detached, and may result in fuel spillage exceeding the rate specified in the standard. Also, on all 1999-2000 gasoline powered vehicles with 8-foot boxes, the fuel tank vapour recovery valve may separate internally resulting in excessive fuel spillage during the rollover test. Correction: (1) The box-to-chassis attachment will be augmented by installing pickup box to chassis retaining cables. (2) The front fuel tank strap isolator will be repositioned. (3) A stop plate assembly will be installed on the vehicle frame forward of the fuel tank to prevent vapour recovery valve contact with a frame cross-member during the impact sequence. |
| 1999076 | 1999-05-05. Fuel System. On certain regular cab 4X2 and 4X4 pick-ups with 6 and 8 foot box, the pick-up box attachments may be damaged during the 48 km/h front barrier test. During the subsequent static rollover test required by C.M.V.S.S. 301- Fuel System Integrity, a pick-up box with damaged attachments may shift or become detached, and may result in fuel spillage exceeding the rate specified in the Standard. Correction: Revised pick-up box attachments will be installed on affected vehicles. |
| 1999061 | 1999-04-15. Engine. On certain vehicles, the speed control cable may interfere with the speed control servo pulley and not allow the throttle to return to idle when disengaging the speed control. If the speed control is used and this condition is present, a stuck throttle could result, which could potentially cause an accident. By not using speed control, this condition will not occur. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected and, if required, speed control cable will be replaced. |
| 1998239 | 1998-11-27. Airbag. On certain vehicles, cast tow hooks change the crash pulse during a frontal barrier impacts. The airbag sensor was not calibrated for this crash pulse and may cause the airbags to deploy in lower speed impacts than design intent. Correction: Cast tow hooks will be replaced with forged tow hooks. |
| 1998105 | 1998-05-25. Steering. ONE OR MORE OF THE RIVETS ON THE LOWER STEERING SHAFT FLEX COUPLING MAY NOT HAVE BEEN STAKED (FLARED OVER) DURING THE SUB-ASSEMBLY PROCESS. THIS CONDITION COULD RESULT IN ONE OR MORE RIVETS SEPARATING FROM THE FLEX JOINT RESULTING IN A REDUCTION OR LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. CORRECTION: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE LOWER STEERING SHAFT AT THE STEERING GEAR AND, IF NECESSARY, REPLACE THE LOWER STEERING SHAFT. |
| 1998104 | 1998-05-25. Brakes. THESE VEHICLES DO NOT COMPLY WITH C.M.V.S.S. 105 - HYDRAULIC BRAKE SYSTEMS. PARKING BRAKE MUST BE CAPABLE OF HOLDING THE VEHICLE (LOADED TO GVWR) STATIONARY ON A 20% GRADE FOR 5 MINUTES IN BOTH THE FORWARD AND REVERSE DIRECTION WITH A 125 POUNDS OR LESS PEDAL EFFORT. THE RUST PREVENTATIVE APPLIED TO THE REAR ROTORS DURING ASSEMBLY INTERACTS WITH THE PARKING BRAKE LININGS RESULTING IN POSSIBLE FAILURE TO CONFORM WITH THIS REQUIREMENT. CORRECTION: PARKING BRAKE WILL BE BURNISHED. |
| 1998049 | 1998-03-26. Electrical. THESE VEHICLES MAY HAVE A BATTERY CABLE CLIP THAT IS INCORRECTLY POSITIONED ON THE FRAME RAIL. THIS MAY ALLOW THE POSITIVE OR NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE TO COME IN CONTACT WITH THE AIR CONDITIONER COMPRESSOR PULLEY CAUSING CHAFING AND A POTENTIAL FOR A DIRECT SHORT TO GROUND WHICH MAY RESULT IN AN ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE. CORRECTION: BATTERY CABLES WILL BE INSPECTED FOR POSITIONING AND DAMAGE AND REPLACED IF NECESSARY WITH THE CLIP POSITIONED CORRECTLY. |
| 1998048 | 1998-03-25. Other. NOTE: DUAL REAR WHEEL SUPER CAB VEHICLES. THE JACKS INSTALLED IN THESE VEHICLES ARE TOO LARGE TO BE PROPERLY SECURED UNDERNEATH THE REAR SEAT. A LOOSE JACK CAN MOVE ABOUT THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT POTENTIALLY INJURING AN OCCUPANT DURING A CRASH OR SUDDEN STOP. CORRECTION: A NEW JACK WILL BE PROVIDED AND INSTALLED CORRECTLY BENEATH THE REAR SEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE CAB. |
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.
