Recall History (8 recalls)

77V096000Sep 1977

WHEELS

THE FRONT WHEEL RIM CLAMP STUDS, INSTALLED ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES, MAY NOT HAVE BEEN MANUFACTURED CORRECTLY, CAUSING A BRITTLE CONDITION IN THE THREAD ROOT AREA. THE STUDS COULD EVENTUALLY CRACK AND BREAK WHEN WHEEL NUTS ARE TIGHTENED TO SPECIFICATIONS.

77V173000Mar 1978

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:COOLING SYSTEM:FAN

THE FLEX BLADE FANS ON THE INVOLVED VEHICLES MAY DEVELOP CRACKS IN THE LAMINATED STIFFENER AS A RESULT OF FATIGUE DURING OPERATION. IF SUCH A CONDITION EXISTS AND THE CRACKS GO UNDETECTED, CONTINUED OPERATION COULD CAUSE PIECES OF THE STIFFENER TO BREAK OFF.

77V174000Aug 1978

SEAT BELTS:FRONT:ANCHORAGE

THE INVOLVED VEHICLES DO NOT CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 209, "SEATBELT ASSEMBLIES". ALTHOUGH THE SEATBELTS IN QUESTION PERFORMED MARGINALLY WITH RESPECT TO THE 5000 LB. LOAD REQUIREMENT, ADDITIONAL TESTING CONFIRMED THAT THE ANCHOR COULD FAIL, ALLOWING EITHER THE ANCHOR TO SLIP OVER THE HOLD-DOWN NUT OR THE ANCHOR TO SEPARATE INTO TWO PIECES.

78V172000Feb 1979

STEERING:LINKAGES:KNUCKLE:SPINDLE:ARM

THE EXISTING CROSS STEERING ARMS MAY HAVE INSUFFICIENT FATIGUE LIFE IN THE NECK AREA. THIS IS NEAR THE BOSS FOR THE CROSS STEERING TUBE BALL JOINT CONNECTION. FAILURE OF EITHER OF THE CROSS STEERING LEVERS COULD LEAD TO LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL OF THE RIGHT FRONT WHEEL.

81V154000Aug 1982

STEERING: STEERING WHEEL/HANDLE BAR

THE FLOORBOARD OPENING AND THE STEERING COLUMN SEAL BRACKET MAY NOT ALLOW SUFFICIENT CLEARANCE FOR THE SHAFT TO TURN FREELY IN THE CENTER OF THE BRACKET/SEAL. THE PINCH BOLT IN THE COLUMN YOKE MAY BIND OR LOCK THE COLUMN AGAINST THE BRACKET, ALLOWING LITTLE OR NO WHEEL RETURN.
