On certain vehicles, the four bolts that hold the bunk webbing restraint latch brackets to the bunk base may be of an incorrect grade. Grade 5 bolts were used in lieu of the required grade 8 bolts. Grade 5 bolts do not meet the original design intent of the restraint. Correction: Vehicles will be inspected and all grade 5 bolts will be replaced with grade 8 bolts.
On certain vehicles, the Antilock Traction Relay Valves manufactured by Bendix were incorrectly assembled. An extra check valve was installed which will not allow the traction control system to function properly. When the system detects a traction control event, the defective valve can cause the rear brakes to apply and not release until the air system pressure is depleted. An unexpected and uncontrollable application of the rear brakes could cause a crash without prior warning. Correction: Suspect vehicles will be inspected and all Antilock Traction Relay Valves found to be defective will be replaced.
The knurled pivot shaft (which operates the windshield wiper arm) is welded to a lever, which connects the linkage from the wiper motor. On certain vehicles, the weld at the pivot shaft to lever may fail. This failure can occur on either the right or left side causing the wiper arm to be inoperative for that side. This could result in obscured driver vision if the failure occurred during inclement weather. Correction: A stall test will be performed on the wiper system to validate the integrity of the suspect weld. All wiper assemblies which fail the stall test will be replaced.
On certain vehicles, the automatic slack adjusters may have had insufficient torque applied to the guide pawl cap screw. This condition may cause the brakes to gradually lose adjustment. This could result in loss of brake effectiveness and increased stopping distances which could in turn result in a vehicle crash. Correction:: The torque will be checked on the automatic slack adjuster guide pawl.. If there is no torque, the brakes will be adjusted and the guide pawl will be tightened to 15-20 ft. lbs.
