Spartan Diamond recalls
Risk: A loss of air to the air brake system could increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the valve stems rub against the brake caliper, a hole may develop causing the tire to deflate suddenly, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: If the engine coolant mixes with the transmission fluid, the transmission may not shift properly, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: Cracking of the welds could result in difficulty in steering the vehicle, increasing the risk of a crash.
Risk: This might cause the esc to perceive an over steering situation and therefore apply the front axle outer wheel service brake until the vehicle is perceived to be stable by the esc. These conditions could increase the risk of a crash.
Risk: A complete separation of the bell crank support bracket(s) may cause steering impairment which could result in a vehicle crash.
Risk: Inadvertent brake application to a selected wheel may cause the drive to try and over correct, possibly resulting in a vehicle crash.
Risk: The seat belt may separate from the cab during a vehicle crash and fail to properly restrain the occupant. This may result in personal injury to the seat occupant.
