  SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS

  THE BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER TO CHASSIS TUBE AND HOSE ASSEMBLY MAY HAVE BEEN LOCATED IN SUCH A WAY THAT IT IS SUSCEPTIBLE TO CHAFING DURING VEHICLE OPERATION. CONTINUED CHAFING MAY RESULT IN TUBE OR HOSE FAILURE AND SUBSEQUENT LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID.

• Recall81V124000October 15, 1981
  SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS

  THE MASTER CYLINDER TO CHASIS BRAKE TUBE AND HOSE ASSEMBLIES MAY HAVE BEEN MOVED FROM THEIR INTENDED POSITION, WHICH COULD ALLOW CHAFING AGAINST UNDERBODY COMPONENTS. CHAFING PROMOTES WEAR OF THE BRAKE TUBE AND HOSE ASSEMBLY AND COULD CAUSE A LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID.

  Remedy

  UPON INSPECTION BRAKE TUBE CLIPS WILL BE INSTALLED, IF NECESSARY, AND BRAKE TUBES AND HOSE ASSEMBLIES WILL BE REPLACED OR REROUTED.

  SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:HOSES, LINES/PIPING, AND FITTINGS

  THE INVOLVED VEHICLES WERE ASSEMBLED WITH THE LEFT FRONT BRAKE TUBE RETAINING CLIP MISSING. THE ABSENCE OF A RETAINING CLIP MAY ALLOW THE BRAKE TUBE TO RUB AGAINST THE SHOCK ABSORBER, CAUSING WEAR ON THE TUBE AND, EVENTUALLY, LOSS OF BRAKE FLUID.

  Remedy

  MISSING BRAKE TUBE CLIPS WILL BE INSTALLED AND ANY CHAFED BRAKE TUBES WILL BE REPLACED.

• Recall81V072000June 15, 1981

  Remedy

  THE MAIN CAB WIRING HARNESS ELECTRICAL CONNECTOR WILL BE MODIFIED TO ELIMINATE DETERIORATION AT NO CHARGE TO OWNER.
