  2. Suspension

    NHTSA 05V175000 Reported 11 vehicles potentially affected SPARTAN CHASSIS, INC.

    On certain heavy duty class 8 trucks, the suspension had transverse beam castings that may fracture under normal loads. If a casting breaks when the vehicle is traveling on a roadway there is the potential for pieces of the casting to become projectiles and the suspension's transverse beam may drop down low enough to contact the road…

    Remedy: Dealers will inspect and replace the defective transverse beam assemblies. The recall began on june 6, 2005. Owners may contact spartan at 1-800-543-4277, option 1.

    Model years: 2004
