  1. Wheels

    NHTSA 85V070000 Reported 533 vehicles potentially affected GRUMMAN ALLIED IND., INC.

    A cotter pin that retains the nut holding the rear wheel bearing to the axle rod may be missing. Consequence of defect: the nut could loosen allowing the bearing to slide off the axle and the wheel to come off. This could result in a vehicle accident.

    Remedy: Install the cotter pins, if missing.

    Model years: 1983, 1984

  2. Hoses, lines/piping, and fittings (service brakes)

    NHTSA 83V139000 Reported 98 vehicles potentially affected GRUMMAN ALLIED IND., INC.

    Vacuum lines that help in the operation of the power braking system may collapse under vacuum pressure. Vehicle does not comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 106, "brake hoses", since vacuum lines contain material which is not certified for their application.

    Remedy: Dealer will replace hose with one that complies with the safety standard.

    Model years: 1983

  3. Emission control (engine and engine cooling)

    NHTSA 83V138000 Reported 51 vehicles potentially affected GRUMMAN ALLIED IND., INC.

    In the event of a collision, vehicle may leak fuel when rolled to an inclination of less than 45 degrees. Although a vent valve is present, the valve closes only when the vehicle angle exceeds 45 degrees. This does not comply with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 301, "fuel system integrity."

    Remedy: Dealer will replace the vent hose with one of an improved design. The vent hose will be rerouted to a position above the maximum fuel level and will discharge into the fuel tank filler pipe.

    Model years: 1983
