9999 WAGNER ELECTRIC WAGNER ELECTRIC Recalls (4)

Campaign:
76E025000 on 10/11/1979
Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:fluid
Notes:
Heavy duty brake fluid fc-85800.brake fluid fails to meet viscosityrequirement at mimus 40 degrees c., for federal motor vehicle safety standardno.116, grade dot 3.(correct by returning all this type brake fluid whichwill be replaced by proper type brake fluid without charge).

Campaign:
76E015000 on 10/11/1979
Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:foundation components:master cylinder
Affected:
350
Notes:
Bendix master cylinder part no.1594.possibility master cylinders haveimproper thread sizes at the primary and secondary outlet ports.thiscondition most likelywould be noticed by the installer, however, the could bereformed to fit the master cylinder and if there was there was a failure inhalf of the system on some brake there would be insufficient displacementreserve fluid to reserve fluid to prevent pedal loss in the remaining intactportion of the system.this could result in total loss of braking and possibleaccident.(correct by inspecting and replacing master cylinders).

Campaign:
76E008000 on 10/11/1979
Component:
Service brakes, hydraulic:foundation components:drum:wheel cylinders
Affected:
13,790
Notes:
Wheel cylinder repair kit f-46348.possibility that an incorrect cup waspackaged in a wheel cylinder repair kit.if this kit is installed theincorrect fit in the cylinder bore could permit a malfunction leading to fluidloss and a possible acci- dent.it is unlikely that complete loss of brakingwould occur prior to the normal warning of gradually lowering of the brakepedal.(correct by installing repair kit with proper parts).

Campaign:
77E021000 on 10/11/1979
Component:
Service brakes, air:antilock:wheel speed sensor
Affected:
19,800
Defect:
The involved anti-lock wheel speed sensors may contain improperly magnetized stator assemblies. this condition could result in malfunction of the brake anti-lock system leading to an increase in vehicle stopping distances and the possibility of wheel lock-up during braking at speeds above 10 m.p.h., due to inability of the anti-lock system to properly control braking pressure.
Correction:
Field inspections will be conducted and suspect sensor stators will be replaced with properly magnetized units.
Notes:
Vehicle category: trailers.system: service brakes; anti-lock wheel speed sensors, part no. ad-80838.consequences of defect: this condition could cause loss of vehicle control andan accident.
