Equipment: Other: Labels11/02/200707V513000
CERTAIN TRUCKS FAIL TO COMPLY WITH REQUIREMENTS OF PART 568, 'VEHICLES MANUFACTURED IN TWO OR MORE STAGES, ALL INCOMPLETE, INTERMEDIATE AND FINAL-STAGE MANUFACTURERS OF VEHICLES MANUFACTURED IN TWO OR MORE STAGES.' THE GROSS VEHICLE WEIGHT RATING (GVWR) LABEL, AS APPLIED, MAY NOT BE ACCURATE. THE GVWR LABEL MAY INDICATE THAT THE VEHICLE'S LOAD CAPACITY IS HIGHER THAN THE DESIGNED WEIGHT RATING.
Consequence
DUE TO THE ERROR IN GVWR LABELING, IT IS POSSIBLE THAT A VEHICLE COULD BE OVERLOADED WITHOUT THE VEHICLE OPERATOR'S KNOWLEDGE. A VEHICLE IN AN OVERLOADED CONDITION MAY BE SUSCEPTIBLE TO COMPONENT FAILURE THAT MAY RESULT IN LOSS OF VEHICLE CONTROL, INCREASING THE RISK OF A CRASH.
Remedy
AUTOCAR WILL SEND A LETTER WHICH DESCRIBES THE DISCREPANCY IN GVWR LABELING, AND WILL INCLUDE A COMPLETE SET OF REVISED GVWR LABELS INCLUDING A REVISED INCOMPLETE VEHICLE DOCUMENT LABEL ALONG WITH INSTRUCTIONS FOR APPLICATION OF THE LABELS. THE RECALL BEGAN ON DECEMBER 7, 2007. OWNERS MAY CONTACT AUTOCAR AT 1-765-489-5499.

Structure: Frame and members: Underbody shields09/03/200808V447000
AUTOCAR IS RECALLING 770 MY 2007-2009 WXLL HEAVY DUTY CLASS 8 VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH RESIDENTIAL FRONT-LOADER APPLICATIONS. THESE VEHICLES MAY DEVELOP CRACKS MAINLY IN THE TOP FLANGE OF THE RH EXTENSION OF THE FRAME RAIL AT THE FRONT SPLAY BREAK WHERE THE RE-ENFORCING STRAPS ARE WELDED. DURING FRONT-LOADER OPERATION, RESIDUAL HYDRAULIC PRESSURE CAUSES THE FRONT LOADER SYSTEM TO PUSH DOWN ON THE BUMPER-MOUNTED BRACKETS, CAUSING VISIBLE DEFLECTION OF THE CHASSIS FROM THE SUSPENSION FRONT HANGER BRACKET FORWARD.
Consequence
THE DEFLECTION MAY EVENTUALLY RESULT IN CRACKING OF THE FRAME RAIL.
Remedy
DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE FRONT FRAME EXTENSIONS WITH THE NEW I-BEAM EXTENSION DESIGN. THE RECALL BEGAN ON SEPTEMBER 29, 2008. OWNERS MAY CONTACT AUTOCAR AT 1-765-489-5499.

Service brakes, air05/08/201313V184000
Autocar, LLC is recalling certain model year 2005-2013 ACX, WX, and WXLL trucks built November 16, 2004, through September 10, 2012. On the affected vehicles, the air brake systems were built without the required air tank drain valve. Therefore, these vehicles fail to conform to the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (FMVSS) No. 121, "Air Brake Systems."
Consequence
Air tanks with valves omitted will not drain if moisture is introduced into the tank, potentially reducing air capacity in the air brake system, which could cause a reduction in brake performance and equipment durability, thus increasing the risk of a crash.
Remedy
Autocar will notify owners, and dealers will repair the vehicles free of charge. The recall began on June 27, 2013. Owners may contact Autocar at 1-765-489-5499. Autocar's recall campaign number is A-1302.
Owners may also contact the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration Vehicle Safety Hotline at 1-888-327-4236 (TTY 1-800-424-9153), or go to www.safercar.gov.
