What the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration knows about this vehicle: every recall, every consumer complaint, every defect investigation, every NCAP crash test. Sourced directly from NHTSA data feeds.
ON CERTAIN TRUCK AND MOTOR HOME CHASSIS EQUIPPED WITH I-SHAFTS SUPPLIED BY ZF HEAVY DUTY STEERING, THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR A FAILURE OF THE FORK/SHAFT CONNECTION.
RiskIF THIS OCCURS, THE VEHICLE COULD SUFFER A LOSS OF STEERING ABILITY, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
FixDEALERS WILL INSPECT AND ATTACH A TENSION COLLAR TO THE STEERING SHAFT TO SECURE THE CONNECTION TO THE YOKE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 16, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT FREIGHTLINER AT 1-800-547-0712.
CERTAIN MOTOR HOME CHASSIS FAIL TO CONFORM TO THE REQUIREMENTS OF FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 121, 'AIR BRAKE SYSTEMS.' IN A SITUATION IN WHICH MULTIPLE ALARMS ARE ACTIVE, A CHECK ENGINE, STOP ENGINE, OR SIMILAR WARNING INDICATOR IS GIVEN PRIORITY OVER THE LOW AIR ALARM BY THE INSTRUMENT SYSTEM CONTROLLER SOFTWARE. IF THE OPERATOR DOES NOT ACKNOWLEDGE THESE HIGHER PRIORITY ALARMS, A LOW AIR ALARM MAY NOT BE DISPLAYED.
RiskTHIS MEANS THAT A VEHICLE COULD BE DRIVEN WITH THE AIR PRESSURE BELOW 60 PSI WITHOUT THE LOW AIR WARNING SOUNDING, WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
FixDEALERS WILL RE-PROGRAM THE MULTI-MODULE DATA CONTROLLER SOFTWARE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON JULY 6, 2004. OWNERS SHOULD CONTACT FREIGHTLINER AT 1-800-547-0712.
