- 76V144000 on 10/11/1979
- Component:
- Latches/locks/linkages
- Affected:
- 225
- Notes:
- International harvester campaign no 76510.heavy duty cab-over engine trucks.possibility that the upper rear cab latch mounting structure develops cracksand can progress to the point of breaking loose from the cab.if the upper cablatch mounting structure is torn loose from cab, the cab would not be latchedor secured in the lowered position during operation.this could cause vehiclecrash without prior warning.(correct by inspecting and adding reinforcementsto cab latch structure).heavy truck
- Campaign:
- 75V210000 on 10/11/1979
- Component:
- Latches/locks/linkages
- Affected:
- 155
- Notes:
- International harvester campaign no g-75516.conco trucks.heavy duty cabover engine 4x2 and 4x6 models.possibility cracking both vertically in thedash area and horizontally along the longitudinal sill, caused by stressinduced at or near the left front cab mounting during severe vehicle operation.this cracking can progress to cab structural failure which may result inbinding of the engine accelerator control linkage in an open position.(correct by inspecting and reinforcing and modify cab sill area).
- Campaign:
- 77V180000 on 10/11/1979
- Component:
- Wheels:multi piece
- Affected:
- 21,980
- Defect:
- The deficiency exists in the front axle forged aluminum hubs. the deficiency which is in the barrel section between the inner and outer bearing, may result in cracks which could lead to hub failure. when hub failure occurs, the separated hub is retained on the axle spindle by the wheel bearing and adjusting nut.
- Correction:
- The dealer will replace the forged aluminum hubs with steel hubs, at no charge.
- Notes:
- Vehicle description: medium and heavy trucks.system: suspension; wheels, front axle hubs.consequences of defect: continued vehicle operation could allow the separatedhub with the wheel and tire to become disengaged from the vehicle. thiscondition could result in loss of vehicle control and an accident.note: advance failure warning will occur in the form of wheel bearing lubeleaks on the wheel rim or tire. in the event hub failure occurs during vehicleoperation, warnings to the operator will occur in the form of an audible sound,wheel vibration and the steering feel of a severely underinflated tire.
