2005 UD UD3300 Recalls (5)

Campaign:
05V341000 on 07/27/2005
Component:
Engine and engine cooling:exhaust system
Manufactured:
01/31/2004 - 05/29/2005
Affected:
2,018
Defect:
On certain medium duty trucks, the exhaust pipe may break at the exhaust brake mounting flange.
Consequence:
The exhaust brake and muffler assembly could separate from the exhaust pipe and be discharged from under the vehicle in the event that the exhaust pipe cracks completely through while driving. this could occur without warning and potentially cause a crash or impede other vehicles on the highway.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the exhaust pipe on the affected vehicles. the recall began on october 28, 2005. owners may contact nissan diesel at 1-972-756-5500.

06V159000 on 05/09/2006
Component:
Engine and engine cooling
Manufactured:
12/31/2003 - 04/07/2004
Affected:
1,814
Defect:
On certain trucks equipped with bando belt tensioner, corrosion or rust may develop on the tensioner spindle or bushing causing the auto tensioner to become stiff or bind. this can cause the drive belt to suddenly come off, or the auto tensioner mounting bolts could suddenly break.
Consequence:
If the drive belt comes off, the alternator warning lamp will illuminate. if the warning is ignored, this condition could ultimately result in a loss of vehicle power (engine stall) increasing the risk of a crash.
Correction:
Dealers will replace the auto tensioner, install upgraded mounting bolts, and replace the accessory drive belt free of charge. the recall began on june 23, 2006. owners may contact nissan diesel at 972-756-5523. note: this recall has been superseded by 07v207.

Defect:
