What was wrong
Defect
VEHICLE DESCRIPTION: F-SUPER DUTY STRIPPED MOTOR HOME CHASSIS BECAUSE THEY MAY HAVE A MISSING OR PARTIALLY INSTALLED BRAKE PEDAL TO MASTER CYLINDER PUSHROD RETAINING CLIP.
Risk
IF THE CLIP IS MISSING OR FALLS OUT, THE PUSHROD COULD DISCONNECT FROM THE BRAKE PEDAL, RESULTING IN THE OPERATOR BEING UNABLE TO APPLY THE BRAKES, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Manufacturer remedy

IN ADDITION, DEALERS WILL ALSO INSPECT VEHICLES FOR LOWER THAN INTENDED WHEEL LUG NUT TORQUE; INCOMPLETE TRANSMISSION SHIFT CABLE INSTALLATION; STEERING COLUMN SHIFT LEVER BRACKET BOLT TORQUE LOWER THAN INTENDED; STEERING GEAR BRACKET FASTENER TORQUE LOWER THAN INTENDED; AND LOWER STEERING COLUMN YOKE BOLT TORQUE LOWER THAN INTENDED.
