|---|---|
| 89V090000 | 1989-06-05. STRUCTURE:BODY. CORROSION OF THE GRABHANDLE AT ITS MOUNTING SURFACE MAY LEAD TO CRACKING OR LOSS OF STRENGTH. Built 1979-05-01 to 1987-07-01. |
| 88V160000 | 1988-10-11. STEERING:LINKAGES. STEERING ARM MAY FAIL IF USED ON EATON EFA12F4 FROM AXLE IN CONJUNCTION WITH ROSS HFB70 POWER STEERING GEAR. Built 1984-02-01 to 1988-09-01. |

THE HANDHOLD MOUNTING SYSTEM, WHICH CONSISTS OF A TUBULAR HANDLE HELD IN THREE PLACES BY CAST ALUMINUM BRACKETS AND ATTACHED TO THE ENGINE EXHAUST MUFFLER HEAT SHIELD. VIBRATION FROM THIS SYSTEM CAUSES THE HANDHOLD PARTS TO WEAR. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: IF THE PARTS WEAR THIN THE POSSIBILITY EXISTS THAT THE HANDHOLD MIGHT GIVE WAY UNDER THE WEIGHT OF A DRIVER. THIS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY. Built 1983-09-01 to 1986-07-01. |
| 85V076000 | 1985-06-11. ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE. CRACKS CAN DEVELOP IN THE OIL FILTER MOUNTING BRACKETS NEAR THE BOLTS THAT ATTACH THE BRACKETS TO THE FRAME SIDE MEMBER. CONSEQUENCE OF DEFECT: IF CRACKS PROGRESS TO THE POINT OF FAILURE, THE FILTER ASSEMBLY COULD FALL OUT AND POSSIBLY BE STRUCK BY OTHER VEHICLES CREATING A POTENTIAL FOR AN ACCIDENT. Built 1981-09-01 to 1985-05-01. |
| 1986113 | 1986-10-08. Structure. THE HANDHOLD MOUNTING SYSTEM CONSISTS OF A TUBULAR HANDLE HELD IN THREE PLACES BY CAST ALUMINUM BRACKETS WHICH ARE, IN TURN, ATTACHED TO THE ENGINE EXHAUST MUFFLER HEAT SHIELD. VIBRATION FROM THE EXHAUST SYSTEM CAUSES THE HANDHOLD PARTS TO WEAR THIN AND COULD CAUSE THE HANDHOLD TO GIVE WAY UNDER THE WEIGHT OF A DRIVER. THIS COULD RESULT IN PERSONAL INJURY. CORRECTION: REPLACE THE HANDHOLD WITH A MODIFIED DESIGN WHICH UTILIZES A RUBBER ISOLATOR. ADD A PLASTIC SLEEVE TO THE CENTER BRACKET FOR ISOLATION. |
|---|---|
| 1986021 | 1986-02-12. Structure. THE TUBULAR GRABHANDLE FOR CAB INGRESS/EGRESS IS HELD IN PLACE BY THREE BRACKETS AT TOP, MIDDLE AND BOTTOM OF THE TUBE. THE CENTRE BRACKET CONTAINS A RIVET WHICH SECURES THE TUBE IN THE BRACKET. THE DEFECT OCCURS IF THE RIVET IS NOT IN THE PROPER ALIGNMENT, WHICH RESULTS IN SMALL GAP BETWEEN THE RIVET HEAD AND THE BRACKET. THIS COULD ALLOW A RING FINGER TO BE CAUGHT IN THE GAP AND RESULT IN INJURY TO A PERSON GETTING OUT OF THE CAB. |
| 1985069 | 1985-05-30. THE ROCKWELL "FF" SERIES FRONT AXLE BEAM ASSEMBLIES MAY CONTAIN CRACKS AT THE AXLE BEAM FORGED ENDS WHERE THE STEERING KNUCKLES ARE ATTACHED BY THE KING PINS. THESE CRACKS MAY LEAD TO A FAILURE OF THE AXLE BEAM END UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS AND COULD CAUSE A COMPLETE SEPARATION OF THE WHEELS, TIRES, BRAKE ASSEMBLIES AND STEERING KNUCKLES FROM THE VEHICLE, LEADING TO A LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL AND POSSIBLE CRASH. |
| 1985048 | 1985-04-29. THE HOLE IN THE THROTTLE LEVER AND THE STOP PIN MAY BE MISMATCHED WHICH COULD ALLOW THE PIN TO LOOSEN AND FALL OUT. SHOULD THIS HAPPEN, THE TENSION SPRING ATTACHED TO THE THROTTLE LEVER ASSEMBLY WOULD SEPARATE FROM THE LEVER CAUSING THE LEVER TO MOVE TO FULL THROTTLE POSITION, IDLE POSITION OR REMAIN IN THE POSITION THE LEVER WAS IN AT THE MOMENT OF FAILURE. THIS COULD CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO CRASH WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING. |
| 1985004 | 1985-01-03. THE SPRING BRAKE AIR CHAMBERS ARE POSITIONED TOO CLOSELY TO A BOLT ON THE SUSPENSION. IF CONTACT BETWEEN THE CHAMBER AND THE BOLT OCCURRED WITH SUFFICIENT FORCE, DAMAGE TO THE PARKING BRAKE AIR CHAMBER COULD RESULT. THIS WOULD CAUSE THE SPRING BRAKES TO AUTOMATICALLY APPLY. SHOULD THIS OCCUR ON THE HIGHWAY, IT COULD POSE A SIGNIFICANT THREAT TO TRAFFIC SAFETY. 2FV8HYKY9EV221499 - VEHICLE LOCATED IN ONTARIO |
| 1985003 | 1985-01-03. THE BALL STUD IN THE REAR (OR AXLE) END OF THE DRAG LINK CAN SEPARATE FROM THE ASSEMBLY WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING TO THE DRIVER. THIS COULD RESULT IN A LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND POSSIBLE VEHICLE CRASH. |
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.
