    Service Brakes, Hydraulic / Antilock/Traction Control/Electronic Limited Slip

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    The wiring from the electronic control unit was connected to the wrong wheel sensor or to the wrong brake modulator valve. It is possible that either or both wiring may have occurred at either the front or rear axle or both axles.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    Should the anti-lock braking system (ABS) wiring be crossed, it would result in a significant degradation in vehicle stopping distance. A signal would be sent to the wrong brake chamber when a brake imbalance is detected. This condition increases the risk of a vehicle accident.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will inspect the ABS wiring and, if necessary, properly connect.

  2. 94V196000Received . 6,449 units.

    Vehicle Speed Control / Accelerator Pedal

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    The base of the electronic accelerator pedal is made of die cast aluminum. The base mounts directly to the cab firewall. The cab firewall is not rigid enough or flat enough at the mounting surface, causing stress on the accelerator base that will cause the mounting pads on the base of the pedal assembly to fail and totally separate from the firewall.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    This can cause loss of speed control, driver distraction, and result in an accident.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Dealers will inspect the accelerator pedal assembly and install a plate between the accelerator mounting base and the firewall on those units where the base is not broken and has no visible signs of a crack. If the base is broken or cracked, the accelerator assembly will be replaced with a new redesigned accelerator pedal assembly.

  3. 94V144000Received . 373 units.

    Engine and Engine Cooling / Engine / Gasoline / Turbo/Supercharger

    Defect, in the NHTSA record
    Four compression backplate retaining fasteners on the turbo-charger were torqued only hand tight. This allows the fasteners to loosen, and causes oil to leak into the compressor air side of the turbo-charger which, when coupled with the heat precipitated by the compressor and the mixing action of the compressor wheel, can result in an air/oil mixture that fuels the engine.
    Consequence, in the NHTSA record
    When this occurs, engine run-on and subsequent loss of operator control via the normal throttle mechanism can occur, which could result in a vehicle accident.
    Remedy, in the NHTSA record
    Replace the suspect turbo-charger with a new turbo-charger.
