Recalls, owner-reported complaints, investigations and safety data

Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.
0
Safety recallsA 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.

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.

Crash or fire reportedComplaints whose submitter recorded that a crash or a fire occurred. These are the reporter's own answers on the NHTSA form, not verified findings.

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC:FOUNDATION COMPONENTS:DISC:CALIPER

Apr 30, 2007
163 units potentially affected
The defect: ON CERTAIN EXTENDED CAB, 5 PASSENGER SPORT TRUCKS FITTED WITH A BRAKE UPGRADE, THE WHEEL BEARING C-CLIP MAY HAVE BEEN IMPROPERLY INSTALLED. THE WHEEL HUB CAN BECOME LOOSE IN THE SPINDLE AND WILL FORCE THE ROTOR TO CONTACT THE BRAKE PAD.
The risk: THE BRACKET HOLDING ON THE BRAKE CALIPER COULD POTENTIALLY FAIL, RESULTING IN THE ROTATING ASSEMBLY (WHEEL, TIRE, HUB AND ROTOR) TO SEPARATE FROM THE VEHICLE INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
The remedy: THERE WILL BE TWO REPAIR OPTIONS AVAILABLE TO DEALERS AND CUSTOMERS: (1) SALEEN WILL SUPPLY A PAIR OF NEW REPLACEMENT FRONT WHEEL HUBS WITH BEARING ASSEMBLIES, INCLUDING HARDWARE, COMPLETE INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS AND TECHNICAL SUPPORT. THE REPLACEMENTS WILL BE COMPLETED BY AUTHORIZED FORD DEALERS; OR, (2) SALEEN WILL SEND A TECHNICIAN OUT TO A DEALERSHIP TO INSPECT ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES ON THE LOT AT THAT TIME. THE TECHNICIAN WILL INSPECT BOTH HUBS AND PERFORM ONE OF THREE REMEDIES: (A) INSPECT AND VERIFY THE C-CLIPS ARE INSTALLED CORRECTLY; (B) REWORK THE HUBS TO MEET THE REVISED TOLERANCE; OR (C) AFTER INSPECTING HUBS AND DETERMINING THEY CANNOT BE REWORKED, REPLACE THE HUBS WITH NEW HUBS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON MAY 2, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT SALEEN AT 1-949-597-3827.
