THE PITMAN ARM RETAINING NUT MAY NOT HAVE BEEN TORQUED TO MANUFACTURER SPECIFICATIONS. THIS COULD RESULT IN INADEQUATE RETENTION OF THE NUT AT THE OUTPUT SHAFT, ALLOWING THE PITMAN ARM TO BECOME LOOSE.
FixDEALER WILL INSPECT AND RETORQUE PITMAN ARM, IF NECESSARY, AT NO COST TO OWNER.
A SHORT CIRCUIT COULD OCCUR DUE TO CHAFING OR WIRE DISCONNECTION IN THE BOX.
FixTHE WIRING IN THE SLEEPER BOX WILL BE CORRECTED, FREE OF CHARGE.
DELAYS OF UP TO ABOUT 2 SECONDS MAY EXIST IN THE BRAKE APPLICATION TIMES TO THE BRAKES ON THE BOGIE AXLES IN THE PRESENCE OF CERTAIN TYPES OF WHEEL SPEED SENSOR SIGNAL DISCONTINUITIES OR DISTORTIONS THAT MAY OCCUR AS A RESULT OF SENSOR WIRE FAILURE. THIS CONSTITUTES A NON-COMPLIANCE TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 121, "AIR BRAKE SYSTEMS".
FixDEALER WILL INSTALL NEW WHEEL SPEED SENSORS THAT INCORPORATE IMPROVED WIRING AND THE PRESENT BOGIE ANTI-WHEEL LOCK SYSTEM WILL BE CHANGED TO AN AXLE-TO-AXLE SYSTEM FOR IMPROVED RELIABILITY.
THE POSSIBILITY EXISTS THAT THE ALUMINUM ENGINE REAR SUPPORT BRACKETS MAY FAIL DUE TO METAL FATIGUE. THIS TYPE OF FAILURE WOULD ALLOW THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY TO DISLOCATE DOWNWARD. THIS WILL RESULT IN THROTTLE CONTROL LOSS WITH THE ENGINE OPERATING CONTINUOUSLY IN THE MID TO UPPER RANGE OF THE GOVERNED SPEED RANGE.
FixDEALER WILL INSPECT AND, IF NECESSARY, REPLACE ALUMINUM SUPPORT BRACKETS WITH BRACKETS MADE FROM DUCTILE IRON FOR INCREASED STRENGTH.
