Most common Mitsubishi Fuso FEC52 problem areas (all years)
Mitsubishi Fuso FEC52 recalls
Risk: A broken rear spring leaf may become a road hazard, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the rocker arms break the engine may stall, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: In the event of a fire, if the fire extinguisher does not function properly, it can increase the risk of injury.
Risk: A short circuit increases the risk of a fire.
Risk: If the fuel hose detaches a fuel leak may result, increasing the risk of a fire.
Risk: Rust or corrosion will result in swelling of the shims causing an increased brake pedal stroke. The extra brake travel may lengthen the distance needed to stop the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the hose bursts, the ATF would leak out. Once a significant amount of fluid is lost, the transmission may become inoperative, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Contaminated ATF may cause the transmission to become inoperative resulting in engine stalling, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Leaking transmission fluid may prevent the transmission from shifting, rendering the transmission inoperative, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Continued use of the parking brake could result in the inability for it to hold the vehicle stationary. This may lead to a truck rollaway increasing the risk of pedestrian injury or a vehicle crash.
Risk: As the fuel line loosens and detaches it may leak fuel. Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source such as high temperature components may increase the risk of a fire.
Risk: Leaking fuel in the presence of an ignition source may increase the risk of a fire.
