Data refreshed

Recalls apply to specific vehicles, not to every vehicle of a model year. Check your VIN with NHTSA or your manufacturer's dealer to confirm whether a recall affects your vehicle.

Recall campaignsA safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.

Open investigationsNHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.

95V177000

SERVICE BRAKES, AIR:CONTROLS, PEDALS AND LINKAGES

Sep 20, 1995
192 units potentially affected
The defect: A STOP LIGHT SWITCH ON THE BRAKE TREADLE VALVE AND A CRUISE CONTROL DUMP VALVE SWITCH WERE OMITTED DURING ASSEMBLY OR BOTH SWITCHES WERE INSTALLED BUT WERE NOT WIRED CORRECTLY.
The risk: IF A LOSS OF AIR PRESSURE OCCURS IN EITHER FRONT OR REAR BRAKE SYSTEM, THE RESULT OF THESE OMISSIONS IS THAT THE CRUISE CONTROL, IF TURNED ON, WOULD NOT DISENGAGE WHEN THE SERVICE BRAKE WAS APPLIED AND THE BRAKE LIGHTS WOULD NOT ILLUMINATE, INCREASING THE POTENTIAL FOR A VEHICLE ACCIDENT.
The remedy: DEALERS WILL INSTALL A SECOND STOP LIGHT SWITCH (WIRED IN PARALLEL) AND A SECOND CRUISE CONTROL DUMP VALVE SWITCH (WIRED IN SERIES) INTO THE TREADLE VALVE.

What a recall is

Safety recall
A safety recall is issued when a manufacturer or NHTSA determines that a vehicle has a safety-related defect or does not comply with a federal motor vehicle safety standard. Recall repairs are free. Whether a specific vehicle is covered depends on its VIN — a recall listed for a model year does not necessarily apply to every vehicle of that year.
Safety investigation
NHTSA opens an investigation to examine whether a safety defect may exist. An open investigation is not a determination that a defect exists, and many investigations close without a recall. Investigations can, however, lead to one.
Manufacturer communication
Manufacturers file copies of the bulletins they send to dealers with NHTSA. These often describe diagnostic or repair procedures for a known condition. They are not recalls: repairs described in a bulletin are usually only free if the vehicle is still under warranty or the manufacturer has extended coverage.
