388 units affected
On certain vehicles, an undersized wire in the trailer stop lamp circuit of the instrument panel harness is susceptible to thermal cycling which may cause damage to the wiring. This could result in the trailer lamp fuse failing, which could cause stop lamps to become inoperative and increase the risk of a crash. This damaged wiring could also increase the risk of fire. These issues could result in injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will replace the undersized wire in the harness.
- Electrical#2013251
224 units affected
On certain trucks, the alternator wiring may come into contact with the exhaust manifold, which could result in a fire causing injury and/or damage to property. Correction: Dealers will re-route the alternator wiring.
- Powertrain#2012285
143 units affected
On certain trucks, the driveshaft attachment bolts may not have received adequate tightening torque during vehicle assembly. Should the fasteners loosen and fall out, a driveshaft could detach from the vehicle. This would result in a loss of vehicle propulsion which, in conjunction with traffic and road condition, and the driver’s reactions, could increase the risk of a crash. Also, a driveshaft separating from the vehicle could strike another vehicle, a stationary object, or a bystander. These issues could result in property damage and/or personal injury. Correction: Dealers will tighten the U-joint fasteners of both driveshafts to the prescribed torque.
