  1. Filler pipe and cap (fuel system)

    NHTSA 94V241000 Reported 317 vehicles potentially affected WAYNE WHEELED VEHICLES

    During installation of the rear seats, the drills used to create pilot holes for mounting the rear seat penetrated the fuel tank crossover pipe located behind the rear spring hanger bracket above the rear spring. The damaged fuel lines can cause fuel leakage.

    Remedy: Dealers will inspect the fuel tank crossover pipe and if a puncture is found, a replacement pipe will be installed.

    Model years: 1994

    NHTSA 94V046000 Reported 122 vehicles potentially affected WAYNE WHEELED VEHICLES

    During installation of the rear seats, the drills used to create pilot holes for mounting the rear seat penetrated the fuel tank crossover pipe located behind the rear spring hangar bracket above the rear spring. The damaged fuel lines cause fuel leakage.

  3. Latch (latches/locks/linkages)

    NHTSA 93V195000 Reported 40 vehicles potentially affected WAYNE WHEELED VEHICLES

    The three-point latches used on the emergency doors have been mistakenly assembled using standard nuts rather than locking nuts. The standard nuts could back off due to vibration, causing the rods which unlock the emergency doors to fall off.

    Remedy: The standard nuts will be replaced with locking nuts.

    Model years: 1993

    Only two seat belts were installed on the 39 inch bench seat; the center belt was omitted. Vehicles are not in compliance with the requirements of federal motor vehicle safety standard no. 222, school bus passenger seating crash protection.

    Remedy: The seat belt will be installed at no charge to owner.
