03- Brakes#2019305
78 units affected
Issue: On certain vehicles, the brake pedal clevis pin clip may contact the throttle pedal mount. This could cause the clip to detach and allow the pin to slide out of position. If this happens, there will initially be a loss of brake lights. If the pin continues to slide out further, the brake pedal may become detached, requiring an increase in pedal effort to stop the vehicle Safety Risk: A sudden increase in brake pedal force could lead to an increase in stopping distance. If the brake lights do not work, a following driver may not to recognize that a vehicle ahead is braking. Both of these conditions could increase the risk of a crash. Corrective Actions: The company will notify owners by mail and instruct them to take their vehicle to a Daimler Trucks North America authorized service facility to replace the throttle pedal assembly. This will provide clearance for the brake clevis pin clip. Additionally, for some vehicles, the brake clevis pin will be repositioned.
- Seats And Restraints#2018423
17 units affected
Certain vehicles equipped with a bench style seat and manual, lap-only seat belts, do not comply with the requirements of Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 208 - Occupant Protection in Frontal Impacts. The seat belts are not equipped with a retractor as required by the standard. As a consequence, the seat belt may not adjust to accommodate the varying size of occupants, which could increase the risk of injury in the event of a crash. Correction: Spartan Motors Service Centers will replace the seat belts with new ones that have automatic locking retractors.
- Seats And Restraints#2017542
1 units affected
Certain vehicles may fail to conform to Canada Motor Vehicle Safety Standard (CMVSS) 210 – Seat Belt Assembly Anchorages. The thickness of the passenger seat belt anchorage mounting bracket may not be adequate. As a result, the seat belt assembly could separate from the mounting bracket during a crash, which could increase the risk of injury and would fail to meet the anchorage strength requirements of the standard. Correction: Spartan Service Centers will install a reinforcement bracket to the passenger seat belt anchorage.
