  1. Gear box (other than rack and pinion) (steering)

    NHTSA 00V308000 Reported 35 vehicles potentially affected MACK TRUCKS, INCORPORATED

    Vehicle description: heavy duty trucks. The steering gear fasteners were incorrectly tightened and can work loose.

    Remedy: Dealers will remove, degrease, and retorque steering gear mounting bolts.

    Model years: 1999

  2. Rack and pinion (steering)

    NHTSA 90V140000 Reported 1,770 vehicles potentially affected RVI INC.

    Capscrew that attaches steering gear to the steering bracket may loosen and cause the gear to separate from its supporting bracket.

    Remedy: Replace the steering bracket and capscrews.

    Model years: 1988, 1989, 1990

  3. Vehicle speed control

    NHTSA 86V067000 Reported 830 vehicles potentially affected MACK TRUCKS, INCORPORATED

    The sealant used on the injection pump could penetrate through the bushing and get between the throttle shaft and bushings causing the shaft to bind. Consequence of defect: throttle shaft seizure may cause the engine to stay on full throttle, and result in loss of operator control and possibly an accident.

    Remedy: Replace both bushings in the governor housing.

    Model years: 1985, 1986

  4. Gear box (other than rack and pinion) (steering)

    NHTSA 83V101000 Reported 1,486 vehicles potentially affected MACK TRUCKS, INCORPORATED

    Bolted installation of the steering gear housing has a tendency to loosen in service. This is due to a backward installation of the lockwashers, which are bellville type, and a resultant incorrect torque on the bolts.

    Remedy: All recalled vehicles will have bellville type lockwashers at steering gear housing attach points replaced with standard split-type lockwashers.

    Model years: 1982, 1983
