The finish can creep from under the head of the bolt over time, which can result in a loss of torque on the fastener. A new fastening technique has been developed to help distribute the load to reduce the effect of the cross member finish. In addition a new longer bolt was added to accommodate the addition of a locking washer.","document":{"url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10146245-9999.pdf","alternate_url":"https://static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2018/MC-10146245-0001.pdf","confirmed":false},"url":"https://open.wenmarpro.com/bulletins/10146245","components":[{"id":"powertrain","name":"Transmission and driveline","parent":null}],"codes":[],"topics":[],"vehicles":[{"make":"QUANTUM FUEL SYSTEMS LLC.","model":"CNG FUEL TANK","year_from":null,"year_to":null,"match":null,"vehicle_ids":[]}],"as_of":"2026-10-19","note":"A bulletin is a manufacturer's communication to its dealers, as NHTSA indexes it.
